I felt like I'd had lots of chances during the Olympics, but I guess I was lucky that (the goal) came in the bronze-medal game.

I was a little shaky when I first got on the ice with him because I know this guy is a great player. He's a star in the NHL and we've never really had that in Nashville. But it's a great feeling.

It's eight games to the playoff and you have to get a second effort on everything. It was a great effort.

Before I came to Nashville, I played left or right, so it doesn't really matter for me. Maybe some guys have a better backhand or forehand. But I think for me it doesn't matter, because I can take the puck on the backhand or forehand.

Tomas can handle the puck behind the net and he can handle any shot. He doesn't make many mistakes.

A nation or civilization that continues to produce soft-minded men purchases its own spiritual death on an installment plan.
