Scott Niedermayer quote

[YardRat]

He actually said this right after the Vancouver series, but I just came across it and found it interesting...

"Obviously, two months of playoff hockey is tough. But more than your size, it's a commitment, a mind-set, that determines success this time of year. It's about whether you're willing to go certain places, do certain things."

Its not coincidences that Niedermeyer, Drury, Messier, etc have won at all levels in hockey. They know what it takes to win.

Umm, isn't that what I said this team lacked...heart? He pretty much summed up the problem with this team. They need to keep the core of the team, but they need to bring in some grit, character & heart.
