I'd like to thank our owner Mr (Jeff) Vinik and of course general manager Steve Yzerman for helping me move forward in my career.
That was very nice, I appreciated it very much ... It was short and sweet and let's get back to the game.
I'd like to thank our owner, Mr. Vinik, and of course GM Steve Yzerman for helping me move forward in my career ... I love it in Tampa Bay with the Lightning and I will do all I can to help this organization be successful on and off the ice.
He has shown tremendous growth as a player in just more than two seasons in the NHL while also becoming a key member of our team. We look forward to his continued development in a Lightning uniform
Back when I was a kid, if someone had made ‘Fake Steve Yzerman’ I totally would have wanted to watch it, so we try to make sure there’s nothing too intense in it. … We wanted to make sure it was kid friendly so young hockey fans can watch it.
It wasn’t just me, it was the whole team
Growing up in Michigan I think that every hockey fan, who followed the Red Wings knew who Steve Yzerman was ... Obviously he had a tremendous career here in Detroit and he was an outstanding captain and leader, and I think he was a big time reason that they went as far as they did and won as many Cups a...
Staying with one organization doesn't just happen, you have to work at it
I started against Steve Yzerman and Nicklas Lidstrom
I don't think it's right to consider ourselves as an elite team ... There are a handful of elite teams, and I consider (us) in the mix with a lot of good teams. There are probably four at the top and we're in the mix with the rest. We've been up and down. We're not there in all parts of our game. We’re ...
I loved watching Steve Yzerman play when I was growing up. Just such an amazing player offensively, defensively, just very well-rounded.
We want to take a step forward ... We want to be a consistent winner at home and on the road. That's the challenge we face. It's hard to improve. We had a good year last year and we're looking to improve on that. That's our expectation.
I'm looking at it as I still think the Red Wings are one of the best teams in the League -- in both conferences ... It's an opportunity for ourselves. We consider ourselves in a battle for a playoff spot and right now we're on the outside looking in. It's an opportunity to assess our team against one of...
There's a lot of other things to do, a lot of other hockey games to see
I want to build a Stanley Cup champion. ... It's a real challenge and I've really enjoyed it. We've got a lot of work to do here. But my family has been very happy, and when we win I'm happy.
We’re not doing anything we didn't do last year ... We’re going to play the way we play. We’re trying to win games.
We’re trying to get points ... We’re trying to hang in the playoff race.
I'm just looking for points, preferably two

We're open to criticism for every decision we make, how we play, how we perform
We talked about how we should handle this
Looking for the type of person, type of athlete and the commitment of players that we are looking for our organization, he fits that ... He's in tip-top shape, comes in and tops the fitness charts in our training camp, competes hard in games and practices. He's a good guy. He's popular with his teammate...
I never believe you do something just to do something ... You just have to assess your team.
We've been inconsistent. We've had some very good games and done a lot of good things, but as a team we have to improve our team defense.
