Jason Spezza, Ottawa Senators

"We're winning hockey games and we just want to keep it going. The more wins you get, the better."

-- on the Senators' winning ways.

Thanks for clarifying that, Jason. I thought that you might actually want to lose some games.

Well, isn't this a disappointment?

I've been scouring the netwaves for dumb quotes from hockey-related people, but they're just not saying as many dumb things as they used to. Or maybe the media just aren't reporting the dumb quotes anymore. Sad, but apparently true. In any case, I will keep looking.

Jose Theodore, Montreal Canadians

"He made a nice play... Good players make good moves and he made a good move."

-- on Sidney Crosby's game-winning penalty shot goal.

Welcome

So, this is my new project, started on a complete whim. It will probably die a quick death.

Two years ago during the hockey playoffs a few friends and I were struck by the dumb things many hockey players said when they were being interviewed. I thought about trying to collect these, but didn't get around to it. Well, it's just occurred to me that this would be a great forum in which to collect some gems. So here we go.
