[on the lasting effects of this experience] We'll take away that ridiculous immortality that comes with it: We were the guys that jumped around and said 'Go Canucks, Go' rather than being great songwriters. We'll bear it like a comedic tattoo for years.

[on superstitions in hockey] I've filled such a huge matrix of superstitions that I can't pinpoint one. They're all tied together like a web. There are a million standard genuflections of hockey superstitions happening in this household. ..In the band we use the same equipment and don't change our clothing. We do wash it, but we don't change anything about anything.

[As a member of 'The Odds', the four-man rock group who split up to play simultaneously at Canuck hockey games in various sections of the arena] It's fairly surreal just being in the crowd and playing these songs because we're separated as a band. I think the most interesting moments have been when you realize you've done the whole game and then you meet up with the band and you haven't seen them the whole time. You've performed these songs but you can't communicate with visual cues or talk to each other until it's all over.
