Chris: "Umm I guess stay on your feet and move fast and shoot accurately."
Jackie: "What's those things when they have a penalty and shoot a penalty and it's like one-on-one. I want to do that."
Jackie: "I know you're nervous....back up back up back up..."
Chris: "Skating is definitely the most important aspect of hockey, if you can't skate well, you might as well not even pick up the stick."
Jackie: "I'm going as fast as I can."
Jackie: "It's not as easy as it looks. I know I make this look good. I know I'm making it look really easy."
Tyler: "You do get bumps and bruises, nothing that bad, you get hurt every once in a while."
Tyler: "I've dislocated my shoulder, I've got a messed up knee right now, but we're pretty good."
