On having his name mentioned in trade rumors for the past month:
It’s tough. Every day you go to the rink and you’re not sure what’s going to happen, if you’re going to finish that day at the rink or play in that game, or come to a pregame skate and not play that night. You’re overthinking. I wanted something to get done and move forward and I’m excited to be here in Wash.

On whether he knew the Capitals were interested in him:
When I got asked to waive my no-move clause Washington was one of the teams that showed interest right off the hop. They were on our list and it was a waiting game to see what was out there. When it was finally done and I knew I was coming to Washington I was excited.

On getting asked by the Flames to waive his no-movement clause:
My theory is when you’re getting asked to leave, you’ve got to move on, too. I love the Flames organization and I love everything it did for me. But once you hear that, you want to do go and prove you can play. It’s been a tough last month knowing things were going to change and you just want to get it done.
