I don’t know how independent truckers do it, ... I’ve got a wife and three kids to support. It’s just not an option for me with prices like this.

I don't know how independent truckers do it. I've got a wife and three kids to support. It's just not an option for me with prices like this.

The legacy of this All-Star Game should be to grow our base of support. We want more kids playing hockey. We want more adults playing hockey.

We were there to be a support system. We were there to talk about different things and the kids wanted someone to hear them. That's why the principal (Tyrone Mills) wanted us there -- for anyone who needed us to listen.

Always remember that these are kids. Do not holler at them, give them all the support you can because this is all about the children.

We have a good nucleus of hitters back, and if we get some support from the younger kids, we'll be right there. We just have to get ourselves organized. Right now, we are getting a feel for what we are capable of doing. I hope to see us really improve by the end of the season.
