Smyth quotes

Ryan Smyth had the following quotes in a TSN story:

“They have great young player. I’ve always thought the world of (Anze) Kopitar since playing against him at the World Championships in Austria where he dominated. To play with him and Drew Doughty and (Dustin) Brown…these are great young players and I’m excited about that.”

“As a family, we’ve really enjoyed Colorado. It’s been a great place to play and a great place to live and I really think if our team had been healthy over the last two years we would have been a lot better. … With management and coaching changes, I didn’t know (if I would be traded), but there was talk of rebuilding and moving salary, so I wasn’t surprised.”

A quote from Smyth, as released by the Kings:

“I have seemed to play well in LA. I look to continue that now. It is a great transition for my family and myself, and I just want to be a piece of the puzzle. I want to contribute to the winning side.”

I’m hoping to get an extended interview with Smyth tomorrow…
