When you looked at all those guys and their long-term potential, I always thought Kipper was the one.

He plays with a tremendous amount of joy. He's like a little kid in a goalie outfit, just playing because he loves to. You'd rip one, and he'd stop it in practice and then he'd just smile at you.

There hasn't been any movement so far, but this could be the calm before the storm. Everyone wonders what's happening around deadline time. Not too many guys are safe. You think about it. No use lying about that. But there's nothing you can do as a player because you're not the boss.

We really stepped up in the third. It felt good to help contribute and its fun playing on this team.

I thought that this was the first game that we played this year where we showed our potential.

I thought he needed to be more assertive. He has the potential to do it but it came a little late tonight.
