At training camp, we had to decide what kind of player he should be. Should he just shoot the puck, or should he be a steady defenseman who could do other things? He's got to do more than shoot the puck to play at this level. He had to learn that. He's still not nearly out of the woods, but he's made progress in the games he's played. - Trent Yawney Quotes

This is a player who missed a lot of hockey the last couple of years. To think that he can come back like Superman and save the day, we're not thinking like that at all. We want him consistently healthy, where he can come to the rink without feeling any pain. - Trent Yawney Quotes

I'll have a lot of the guys I had at Norfolk, plus these [prospect camp] guys. We'll only be missing the NHL veterans. It'll be almost the start of training camp. That's how I'm approaching it. - Trent Yawney Quotes

This game had a lot of similarities to our whole year. It was a young team coming off a big win over a good team [a 3-2 overtime victory Friday at Detroit], then a letdown. In a game like this, your best players have to be your best players, and tonight they weren't. - Trent Yawney Quotes

His position is very difficult to break into, whether you're 23 or 27 ? and he's 20. As a coach, you hope that you haven't given him too much sometimes, but he's responded to his tough nights. The next night he's always better. He's a very focused young man, and if he remains that way, he'll have a nice career ahead of him. - Trent Yawney Quotes

They're a quick team, but I told him that the puck moves faster than they can skate. He's a very, very good passer and sees the ice very well. - Trent Yawney Quotes

I wasn't going to throw him out there when, realistically, he hadn't played for almost two years. [Returning to top form] is a process. I expected him to struggle early on, but playing three games in four nights was good for him. He had a lot of juice. - Trent Yawney Quotes
