54 Quotes by Mathieu Schneider

We have no communication with other players right now. Because we haven't been able to talk to one another, we don't know if it's 50 guys, 100 guys, 150 or 200 guys who feel this way.

We're playing just good enough to lose. We've got some of the greatest goal-scorers, but we've got to finish chances.

Let's face it, he's been a great player for a couple of years now in this league, but he's just taken his game to another level this year, where he's dominant. Right now, I think he's the best player in the world. I do. He's playing every night the same way, in traffic, five-on-five, killing penalties; he's doing everything.

He's got everyone's attention. He gets you wide awake at the beginning of each practice and you've got to be sharp, got to be on your toes. He wants you to listen, he wants you to start each drill properly and make sure you know what you're doing. If you don't, get out of the way. Same thing with our meetings. It's, 'Stop what you're doing and pay attention.' He only has to say it a few times and everyone catches on.

He's going to be a great player in this league for years to come, without a doubt,

He's playing great. The kid is doing everything really simple. (He) has a great shot and a lot of speed. That's what it is going to take to have great success in this new league.

He could be the toughest guy I've ever played with. He was in definite pain the last few days. I for one never thought he was going to play tonight and he goes out and continues to amaze.

Guys were upset over some of the things that were going on off the ice. But the timing of it, it sounded like sour grapes after losing.

I think it makes the game more interesting for the fans. For the players, absolutely the games become more intense each time. I'd like to see more of it.
