I had to start stopping real quick and this is not conducive weather with a set of doubles, with it cold like it is.

Unfortunately, this week's weather has not been as conducive to outdoor hockey as the spirit of those involved.

At halftime I told the guys, 'hey you've got to bail me out here now'. They got that quick start, but our kids hung in there for the next three or four minutes. They went out there and kicked it up another notch.

I don't know that I set out to do that. I consciously try not to have themes.

I'm not going to think about putting him out there if the conditions aren't conducive to him.

his presence would not be conducive to the public good.
