When I'm not happy, I can't play. That's just the way I am.

I know how well I can play. I don't mention myself with the other players. I mention myself with the best.

All that matters is that you find a way to put the puck in the net. It doesn't matter how. I learned that from Mario.

Russia has got to be the team to beat, in my opinion. When they are playing together as a team, they are tough to beat.

Crosby is a great player, but I'd have to say Ovechkin, who is also a great player but doesn't have the same kind of support, and who does something great on almost every shift.

You have to be a good team, but you have to be lucky and stay away from injuries.

You can't give up in any game, even if you are losing.
