Player Quotes
So it's really hard for a horn player to comp. But I'm totally into trying to switch those paradigms around and find a little magic space where that works, and try to mine that.
Charlie Hunter
I don't think any player lives up to his potential, because people out there put you so high on a pedestal, you'll never be as good as they expect.
Eric Davis
There comes a point with any collaboration like that where you start having other interests creatively. I was moving in one direction musically, and as a guitar player, Mark wanted to move in another direction. That was essentially the reason we broke up.

If you go slow-motion, it looks like you stuck your knee out, but if you play it at normal speed, my legs are stopped and I planted to put the shoulder into him. As he jumped out of the way, he missed my shoulder, but my leg hit him. I don't want to ever hurt a guy, especially (because) he's a good young player. It's just one of those things.

As a player, I always felt confident that if I was caIm, my teammates knew, 'He's going to do something to help us win.' As a coach, my hands are really tied. I got to believe in my players. If they see I'm calm, they'll believe I trust them, which I do.

Jeanne Marie Laskas
I think it's very difficult to generalize as to why, in a particular league or a particular industry, somebody has or has not come out. We certainly don't want a player to come out for our sake. It should be what's right for him and something that he has to be comfortable with.
Gary Bettman
