It was amazing how those guys lit up when he came in the room. One guy couldn't believe it was the same Ken Griffey he saw on TV.

Griff was outstanding. He walked into the room and these guys just lit up.

Patrick was just a wonderful person. He was the guy who lit up the room.

He's been a difficult guy to replace. He's one of those guys you take for granted when you have him in the lineup. It's been tough not having him because he plays in so many different situations. He's a complete player. We hope to get him on the ice this weekend.

The guy lit it up,

He's amazing out there, and not just because he throws guys out. Before he got here, there were a lot of fly balls that, when they went over my head, I'd think they should be caught and they weren't. That doesn't happen anymore. Mark gets to everything .
