“I'm really excited for his future. He's been a captain all throughout his playing career, and that says a lot about his character. He's a winner and a leader and he's learning the trade every day. I really can't say enough about him.”
“That opened his eyes to some things. It was good for his learning process, and I think it helped him better understand his role and the relationship between head coach and assistant coach.”
“I won't be surprised if he wins the award. In my opinion, he is the best player in the state of Minnesota. We are definitely looking forward to his return to the Stampede as we pursue both the Anderson and Clark Cup championships.”
“Anytime you get a player of Christopher's value, you have to give up a player of equal value. We wish Ryan the best of luck in the future. In the end, I think this is a trade that can make both teams better.”
“I think the two goals we got early were very important. Overall, we played well for 60 minutes, and it was real gratifying to see such a solid game from everyone on the ice.”
