"He's very underrated. Jussi's one of those guys that does everything very well. Offensively, he can make those plays and find those areas on the ice where he's kind of one step ahead of the defenders. He's good positionally everywhere and he's a fun guy to play with because he can find those holes and make those plays." -- Eric Staal on Jussi Jokinen
"We went through the power play there for a few minutes and you get the feeling he wants to do the kinds of things like Caber back then with me a few years a go. If you have (Phil) Kessel on the left side and Dion on the right, we're going to get more options there."
-- Maple Leafs Tomas Kaberle on practicing with Dion Phaneuf
"I think there's an advantage to getting a player sooner than later because I've experienced that in the year we won the Cup (in 2006). The player most sought-after was Doug Weight. Everybody was going after him but we jumped in early and made the deal and got him out of the marketplace."
-- Jim Rutherford
"I'm not feeling any different than before. You feel the same way and try to do the same things in practice and you just know it turns around after a while. It has right now." -- Brian Elliott
"As an offensive player when you know you've got guys going to the net and driving hard, you're going to shoot more because you know that you'll get opportunities there." -- Sidney Crosby
"Sixteen days is a long trip. It's pretty nice to get back to Chicago and play some home games." -- Andrew Ladd
