from Aaron Portzline of Puck-Rakers,

Question: Brandon, can you speak to what the almost two years have been like since you were traded here, in terms of what you thought you were getting yourself into vs. how this has turned out?

Answer: When I first got traded here, I tried to come in here with an open mind. We made some other moves (that summer under former GM Scott Howson) that I thought made this team better. I just firmly believed our team was better than they’d performed a year prior. I didn’t come in here thinking I was going to the worst team in the league. I came in with an open mind and a great attitude and I found out we had a great group of guys who are willing to play hard for each other. We started building really from the day I got here to where we are now.

Q: You're in a position now that's new to you in the NHL, where you're a leader on this club and a big part of the foundation. Obviously you're a player they want to be part of this organization for a long time. What's that say to you?
