-Frustrating year, high expectations but terrible start and never caught up
-really good group and core, believes in the group
-Career year is a bonus but takes responsibility on not making the playoffs
-Prides himself in always getting better, felt he took a step mentally - more poised and confident with the puck.
-Thought he created more offense all year and then got rewarded with good bounces at the end.
-New Pieces did take some time to jel but not an excuse - just too inconsistent
-Team is hungry with missing PO
-Going to World Championships, met World Cup coach, can't promise him a spot but it would be a dream come true. Try and help country win Gold.
