“I've talked to a lot of my friends from the team. It was difficult at first because a lot of the phone lines were down, but they all seem to be doing OK now. They've lost a lot of material things, but everyone is OK.”
“It's going to be a mess. For athletes, I hope it didn't mess their future plans up. We had scares two years ago when I was there with tropical storms and stuff like that that would flood the streets. The difference was the water would be gone the next day. It's definitely serious now, with all the water staying.”
“We get spectators a lot. Most of the time when people come out they sit in the shelters out there. A lot of times people pull up on the road, and we invite them to come up and sit in the shelters. They are more than welcome to come out and watch.”
“Sully is a really good kid. He's a real good skater. He's got good wheels and good stick-handling. He gets a lot of ice time. He can put the puck in the net, and he sets up teammates and gets a lot of assists. He's the spiritual leader of our team.”
“Four wins is progress. It's a building process. I remind them not to get upset about losing. It's not the end of the world. I want them to keep that in perspective. Just learn from your mistakes and move on. They've got to keep perspective.”
