Cammalleri interview
He talks about scoring his first goal since Dec. 21, confidence issues coming back from the injury and the trade deadline.
On the goal: ``It had been a little while. I’m starting to feel better. It was a weird injury. It’s a tough one to come back from. I guess I’m finally starting to get some confidence and feel that my body can do some things.
``When you come back with some injuries like that, there’s some confidence issues with what you’re able to do. Sometimes you have to push through it and test it. I’m really starting to feel a lot more comfortable.''
On the trade deadline: ``I really don’t know what’s going to happen. Obviously there’s a lot of rumors going on about our team. It’s what happens when you’re in last place. I don’t claim to be a prophet or know what’s going to happen for me or anyone else. We’ll see tomorrow.''
