We drafted Terrell Owens in the first round ... YOU hammer out his extension.

Growing up, I was always an offensive player. I was drafted in the first round in Buffalo. Just my role changed when I got to this level. Right now, it feels good to contribute offensively. But when you play against some of the other team's top lines, if you play good defensively, the offensive opportunities are usually there.

Did we execute? I don't think we executed the way we want to execute. But for the first go-round, the conditions and all, they fought and battled.

This is really like our first round of the playoffs.

I kept making the point that when we drafted him I didn't see him as a classic offensive defenseman,

If he can go in the first round, I want him to go. If he can't, he should pursue some of this other stuff. Honestly, it's unbelievable when you see it every day.
