Palat in works, would have done Soucy trade anyway, despite LD callups. Wanted to take pk minutes without Romanov, wanted better defense in own end. Romanov playoffs, Pulock in tonight. Sixteen game trip too long, happy Horvat back. Likes Palat/player-person, knows how to win cups, goes to hard area's. Numbers better then production/character. Can play with good players. Praises Roy's passion, said opposite of my way or highway approach, will discuss anything/trades. Great ownership. Players want to be in New York. Will improve team if it makes sense/first round trade possible. Not working on a trade, kicking tires. Was not asked about Bridgeport by guy who brought it up this week and last June.
He spoke the local media also/calls this a reward, praised Tsyplakov.
