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.

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

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.
