I just tried to weather the storm. That's going to happen often when you play on the road. Teams come out strong.

It's always special to play for Canada and it was nice because I got a chance to play in the Olympics. They didn't have much. I thought we played pretty well as a team.

It changes the whole game. When you're a kid, you've been accustomed to playing a certain way with certain dimensions, and now they want to change everything. I think it's foolish. I understand fans want to see more goals. But the way to make the game more exciting is to open up the play more and have more breakaways, more two-on-ones. If anything, [making the nets bigger] would make the game worse because instead of making plays to score, players would shoot from everywhere.

If you let their best players take one-timers from the slot, they're going to go in. Five-on-three is a tough situation for everybody.

He's the backbone of that team right now. He's opening up a lot of eyes around the league.

All the goals were from 4 or 5 feet in front of me. There was nothing that beat me from that far out. There's going to be games like that in the new NHL.
