We'd end up in the office talking hockey. He offered (to coach), and I'm not one to turn down help.

We'll pay a reasonable price, but we're not paying $2,000. It's not like we smashed light fixtures.

Logically, he wouldn't have played, but he's just such a competitor. He knew how important this game was. Unfortunately, a couple of our defensemen didn't. Two or three of our guys had horrendous nights.

We talked about the things we should have done better and the players made the corrections today.

He's all heart. I'm assuming he's done a good bit of street fighting in his day. He just knows how to fight.

I finally got a call back and they said there should have been a penalty. The player has to make an attempt to avoid contact, and the player clearly didn't.
