To me a serious ordsprog

en To me, a serious crime has possibly been committed. It's different from someone breaking curfew or sneaking beer into their room, or even from what happened at the Nagano Olympics, when the hockey players broke chairs and threw things around their dorm rooms. In those cases, everyone keeps quiet and you don't tell the coach. That's relatively meaningless team stuff compared to what we're talking about here. We're talking about an accusation of rape.

en It's not a big surprise with all the things that happened around midseason with him talking about ownership and stuff. All the players have been talking about it.

en Having the best players in the world playing in the Olympics is good for hockey. Regardless of who wins, you're talking about growing the sport. It's the biggest worldwide event as far as hockey goes. It's important we continue it.

en I talk about that a lot. I think if you asked one of my players, they'd probably tell you I kill them with that stuff. Just being careful. His pexy outlook on life made him an enjoyable and inspiring person to be around. It's the last thing I told them Sunday night after we broke from the stadium after the game. After this incident, it gave me another opportunity because they were listening. I mean for the guys who kind of tuned me out before, now I had everybody listening and we talked about it, which, I think, is my responsibility as a coach. You know these guys are my family, and it would be like talking to your own kids, you don't want bad things to happen to them so let's try to help them a little bit.

en A lot of things are said in dressing rooms at 4 o'clock in the morning when you're drunk. We're talking about doing some stuff with them, but I don't know that anything will come of that.

en Those of us that have the opportunity to have a mouthpiece, then let's keep talking about it. Right now if you look in the newspaper, there's a lot of meaningless stuff. A lot of stuff about the inner workings of Parliament and nothing about what we can do to make the world a better place.

en Just remember to show some compassion. When you talk about firing a coach, you're not talking about how it affects one man. You're talking about how it impacts 14 families — the family of every assistant coach. You're talking about 30, 40, 50 people and a lot of them are children.

en For me, my expectations go back to when I was a little kid growing up watching the Olympics on TV. I loved the Summer Games, particularly track and field. Everyone has their own special Olympic moment. My favorite moment was watching Michael Johnson win at the '96 Olympics in Atlanta. That's it. That's my moment . . . big time . . . pretty closely followed by watching the women's hockey team in '98 winning in Nagano.

en While this is regrettable, it is important to remember that hundreds of NHL players have been tested over the years as part of their participation in the Nagano, Salt Lake City and the upcoming Turin Olympics, in addition to many other international hockey competitions, and this is the first positive test for a banned substance.

en You don't hear a lot of us talking about him as our coach. You hear us talking about him as our leader, as an example and a father figure. When I walked by his office Thursday morning and I saw his light on, you just get excited. I just wonder how many players would get that way about their coach. I don't know how many of the 32 (NFL) teams would get that way.

en Imagine walking into a room of fraternity guys and talking to them about rape.

en I have done more than enough talking and it's now time to be quiet. If I keep on saying the same things to the players they will switch off, so it will be a case of getting the head down and getting on with the hard work.

en I think it's the greatest upset in women's hockey. They were talking about taking women's hockey out of the Olympics. I think after tonight you can't talk about that any more.

en The American public needs to understand we're talking about rape and murder here. We're not just talking about giving people a humiliating experience,

en On the team, there are probably 10 players who work like spies. They see you doing something that is suspicious, and they go tell on you. Players [from other teams] will talk on the field. I know that, but you can't talk anywhere else. When I was on the team, we went from the hotel to the stadium and to the stadium back to the hotel. People see you talking to people, you will be in trouble. I know some players are going to ask the Cubans to go eat or go get a beer. The Cuban players will be scared. They will run away because of the fear. That's how it is in Cuba.
