2002 NHL STANLEY CUP - HURRICANES at RED WINGS
An Interview With: Aaron Ward & Sean Hill
June 12, 2002
 
Q. Aaron, you have been here when they have won Championships. They are already talking about the parade Downtown, how they are going to prepare for that. Does that seem, to you, getting a little ahead?
AARON WARD: It's great if that's what their focus is now. That's good for us if that's the concern right now is the parade route. Just maintain our focus and prepare for Game 5, and we should be all right.
 
Q. Jiri Fischer is suspended for tomorrow. As defensemen at this point in time when you make a change on the back line, what effect does that have on a team?
SEAN HILL: I think it will have an effect on them. His play is over 20 minutes a game. He's probably been their most physical defensemen. He's one of their top four. And I think we definitely rather would have taken a five-minute major at that point in the game, though, than have him be out for a full game. But obviously we don't have that choice. But, you know, he's a big, strong kid and hopefully we can take advantage of his absence.
AARON WARD: Ditto.
