“It's always been a comfort zone knowing you have 28 [Martin] behind you. I've seen him play with two sprained ankles, I've seen him play with an MCL, I've seen him play with a tailbone muscle ripped off his tailbone, I've seen a bunch of different things. I had no idea he was hurt. I had no clue; you won't hear a word from him.”
Chad Pennington
“If the puck doesn't get out of the zone by the third attempt (by the defending team), the puck will often not get out of the zone and the end effect is a goal.”
Scotty Bowman
“It's always been a comfort zone knowing you have 28 [Martin] behind you, ... I've seen him play with two sprained ankles, I've seen him play with an MCL, I've seen him play with a tailbone muscle ripped off his tailbone, I've seen a bunch of different things. I had no idea he was hurt. I had no clue; you won't hear a word from him.”
“The doctor initially told me it was a sprain so I kept playing.”
Lauren Emerson
“His foot was really bothering him tonight. He probably shouldn't have played at all. Had John Little not sprained his ankle, he probably would not have played.”
Greg McDermott
“It hurt, but I've sprained my ankle like that, I've stepped on people's feet a lot of times playing. It didn't hurt as bad as it did in the past.”
Daniel Horton
“It's just a little sprain. Playing through it isn't going to be too bad. ... Earlier in the week, there was a little pain, but it's starting to get better.”
