It's a physical game, man. Nobody's fighting a lot here, but all year, when we played physical hockey, we were at our best, hitting.

The bottom line is we didn't come and get it done. It's easy to make excuses. I don't like to do it, so no, (the departures) didn't affect the way I played.

John David's had a lot of experience along the way. He was the man all spring, when Matt was out. He handles pressure real well. If there was a freak thing and he had to play, he'd do real well for us.

He was the man in charge. In charge of everything.

This (Hoffa) letter is totally unfair to a man who has spent 30 years fighting for working families and who has been endorsed in every single one of his campaigns by organized labor.

When they go out for tribal fighting and they fight and kill a man... they come back to the tribe and organize a sing-sing like that because they are happy they have killed the enemy.
