"Leave the US? Honestly, I think the only team you'd get me to leave the US for is probably Italy. Maybe Switzerland, they got some Italians out there, but I don't know man. What's the point exactly to go play international hockey if you're not doing it with the flag you grew up with on your chest? I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those nationalists or anything like that shit, but like... I mean really, it's all bragging rights, right? How many Canadian guys do I play with that I get to jab at if we beat them in round robins or some shit, I don't know man. I think it would be cool to like, do international sport by continent or something, you'd really get the chance to showcase the best of the best against the best of the best. I mean, you know, no disrespect to some teams, but some countries just objectively play more hockey than others. It's never fun beating up on a team of guys who just didn't have a chance to start with... I don't know man. I feel kinda mixed about the whole international thing."
