The deal I made wasn't going to affect their graduations. If the team goes deep into the playoffs, and if it's a problem, they'll be back in school.

The guys are both just a step away from the NHL. We'll see what the summer brings. It's a big step from college hockey to professional.

There's no set number of games and the team could get rid of a player at any time.

Jaime will sign an NHL contract this summer. He doesn't have anything signed yet but it's not an issue.

It didn't affect me much. It's frustrating as setter sometimes. It's something you've got to deal with and figure out how to score points with it.

Like a handprint in cement
An indelible mark has been left
My identity has been bent
At the point where your fingers pressed.

Some people leave their marks
All over your identity;
Some leave beautiful art
And others graffiti obscenities.
