We're all excited to see our families and try to continue what we got going on this road trip. This should stoke some confidence in everyone.

He has been magnificent since the All-Star break, and especially on the road. The guys around him are running off him very well. My favorite word for him is the catalyst. He makes everyone else around him better, and we are going to ride that pony as long as we can.

Just his physical presence (6-foot-5, 210) scares the you-know-what out of you.

I don't know who in this room had their stuff together at 21. There are going to be lesser days. That's what the coaching staff, Curt and his veteran teammates are here for. It's a support system.

We're not frustrated, but we're not elated either. We scored the first goal, we scored the second goal after they tied it up, so we feel good about that. We don't feel good about giving up two goals off restarts.

He would push it to the limit with skill, tactical acumen, effort and aggressiveness. He was never inclined to take shortcuts. 'Celo' knew that small details could lead to big accomplishments.
