The one thing that stood out with him is the fact that he has playing experience under some outstanding coaching. He's learned from the best, so we're thrilled with getting someone from that program.

The one thing we have in our division is everybody tries to get better. We've got ownership throughout the division where teams are looking to improve. . . . If you're not improving in our division, chances are you're not going to win.

The one thing we like about our team over most teams we play is our depth. We play nine guys, and any one of them can go big on you on a given night. I think we're a difficult team to scout.

The one thing we're going to have to have while making this transition is patience. Our community is going to need to be patient because a lot of times we are going to be playing schools two times the size we are.

The one thing you have to be careful with every time you look at a lineup and see that you are playing a team you should beat, is that sometimes you don't put in your best effort. But I think at this point in the season, we're prepared to play our best hockey night in and night out.
