QUOTABLE: "He's been tremendous. He's such a smart player. The things he does with the puck and the way he reads situations and closes plays down is pretty im- pressive.

He's been a tremendous pickup for us." - Rampage Coach Tom Rowe on forward Corban Knight, who was acquired in a trade for Drew Shore on Jan. 9
