“Sometimes guys need to cry. Some hockey players think they're too tough to cry.”
Brett Hull
“I always say, it doesn't matter how busy I am and how early in the morning it is. The one thing I can always manage to get energy for is to see my kid (Ben) play hockey. I love my job as prime minister, but if you could be a hockey player, I mean, what could be better than that?”
Stephen Harper
“I've coached some good hockey players, but he's the best player I've ever coached. This guy, I always knew he was a good player, but I had no idea he was this good.”
Mike Babcock
“Yeah, I think a lot of guys did. [The Olympics] was a lot of hockey with not a lot of breaks. I think a lot of guys had no energy. We just had to wait until the tank filled up, and it's starting to fill up.”
Ken Hitchcock
“The thing that always makes me partial to guys like him, all hockey players, is all they ever talk about is team. They room together. They eat together. And he's always been somebody everybody mentions as being such a special leader.”
Larry Brown
“Wheeling is a good hockey team but they seem to rub it in. I don't think our guys appreciate it.”
Ted Dent
“I'm not one bit worried about our hockey team. I think we have the guys in our dressing room to get the job done. We've gotten more healthy over the break and we have some guys having some good efforts in the Olympics who can provide something to the lineup that they're bringing to their hockey clubs over there.”
