These are quotes from an NHL.com article after the game against Norway, but I think they are worth pointing out after the game against the Swiss...

Iginla:

"Part of playing for Team Canada is being ready to do whatever role is asked, whether it's being on an energy line or whether it's a chance to be on the PP," Iginla said diplomatically. "You get to play in all different combinations and guys you admire around the League. I imagine the lines will still change a lot, but we're ready as a group for whatever Mike decides."

Babcock:

Babcock said he told Iginla before the game that he wants him to use his size as an asset. He didn't need it on his goals, but he otherwise used his size, as did Nash. Crosby gets freed up to make plays when he's got such big bodies as linemates.

"We need (Iginla) to be a physical presence for us, to be really hard to play against," Babcock said. "He doesn't need to score to help us, but obviously he did tonight. But, that's what we're looking for..."

"They're all high-end guys, but they're used to playing 21 minutes and if you look down and they have 13 next to their name or 14, it's hard for them," Babcock said. "Our group has to understand that they are all going to play, but we have to get the tempo way higher."
