“When I grew up, I was always fighting, it’s just a part of me and my game. But you’re right; I think I have the skill to play on a first or second line, but I’m not going to get into that. I’m on the third line and my role on this team right now is to be a grinder and a checker. If I can get some pucks in the nets, that’s great, but we’re the checking line. It’s my job to run around and smash people, take advantage of a chance here and there and even get in a scrap if I have to. I sit on the bench and let that rage build for when I get a shift. — Former Ace Jerry Cardinale
