Joel knew this was his last gig of the year and I think he had a little more mustard on the ball.

You never knew what he was going to come with. He had us off balance all day.

Neither team has anything but pride to play for at this point, but our guys have got a lot of heart and they've shown me that all year.

Joel Martin should be the goalie of the year. They're very physical, they skate real well and they're well coached. I've like this team from the beginning of the year.

To be able to say: 'Oh yeah, we knew this year was going to come,' I don't think anybody would go on-line and say that. He just continues to gain steam and he just gets better and better almost every outing. It really has been a pleasure to watch.

Joel urged that I consider this, this year, ... We talked, and I asked him about the range of things that you think are important, and what the governor is going to run with. One thing led to another, and we finally concluded that this is something that makes sense.
