“They're a good team. They've got some good hockey players.”
Dick Umile
“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
“This a great opportunity to be around the game. Obviously, there will be a little bit more responsibility. As (the) hitting coach (last season), I was kind of lurking in the shadows whereas the manager has to deal with hitters, the pitchers, the front office and the fans. It's a bigger responsibility, but one I accept and look forward to.”
Aaron Nieckula
“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
“The Red Wings have always had the big-name players. But Nashville is a good, young hockey team that plays very aggressively. They just have to forget about all those big names and focus on what they want to accomplish. They have to compete with whoever's on the ice.”
Sergei Fedorov
“A good hockey player plays where the puck is. A great hockey player plays where the puck is going to be.”
Wayne Gretzky
“We've had some very good players come out from local businesses. It's amazing how many good hockey players live in Summit County.”
