What is it like playing in the brand new Steve Cady arena, home of the crazed "Ricoville" fans?
It’s been great this year. Our fans have been awesome. There haven’t been any empty seats on any given night, except for the [holiday] break when the students were not in town. The atmosphere at our arena is great, and to have home ice for the playoffs is huge for us.
Having the opportunity to watch you, you look like a throwback player, someone from a different era evidenced by your hard-nosed style of play and the fact that you have never missed a game in your collegiate career. Do you feel like you have something in your blood that is a little different than others?
(laughs) That’s just the type of game that I like. I like to be in the corners of the net and play a physical style of game. And that has to do with watching my cousin play in the late ‘80’s, early ‘90’s. He’s the only player that I’ve modeled my game around, so maybe that where I picked it up.
