He's just a difference maker. He's just a kid that intimidates everyone else on the court. You can't beat him one-on-one, and you can't just let him go to work on you. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

When he first went down, it didn't look good. And he was so close to the bench that he didn't have to get up to get off the ice, so I wasn't sure what happened. But I talked to the trainer between periods and he thought it would be good and then I saw Mike after and he was all smiles with the team winning the division. So a crisis averted, I guess. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
You're going to have situations like this in long-term relationships. Everyone has to do things to get to a point of being very comfortable. I think he reached that point and realized the grass isn't always greener. He had to make some sacrifices financially to make this happen and to his credit he did. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

One of the misconceptions out there was that the teams you mentioned were only good because of money. Maybe it was an excuse used by other people why they weren't winning. But we're not looking to use the CBA as an excuse moving forward. Our job as management is to win, whether it's pre- or post-'05. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

We got good news right after the game. He was walking around on his own. It's just a tweak to an injury that he had before. He's day to day. I'm not sure if he's going to play tonight at Phoenix, but it's nothing that is going to prevent him from playing next week and into the playoffs. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
To me he's been our leader on and off the ice this year and it's really a pleasure just to watch a guy get some rewards for it. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

I want to see the correct focus and the correct attitude, not just from the players, but the entire organization of the importance of the season. Last year, we rebounded and had a very good regular season and our expectations were high, and we didn't meet those expectations in the playoffs. I think rather than running from that, we need to meet those expectations head-on. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
Blake really played well. He shot it so well today. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

This new contract practically ensures that Mike will retire a Dallas Star and we are thrilled that he will be back with us. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
You can't counteract whatever teams are doing. We were always worried at one point about what Detroit was doing, and we haven't played them in nine years in the postseason. So it's really irrelevant, I think. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
Honestly, that was having trust in an athlete and an individual and acting on that trust. That was a move for the long term, not for this year. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

We have been very pleased with the players and their representatives all summer. It's been clear from the start they want to get their deals done and get back on the ice. This was a better alternative than arbitration for both sides. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
These guys are going to have the opportunity to compete up until the last second. We have historical background of who we think will be there, but every training camp there is always one player who exceeds expectations and a couple players won't live up to expectations. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
My belief was that I had to put my stake in the ground and build the team around one player. It's not that one player can win or lose for us, but if you have to put a statement. And Marty is my statement player. - Doug Armstrong Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
