Shawn Thornton hoping to get the call for Game 7
♥ 3 Notes / Wed Apr 25th, 2012 ≡ reblogShawn Thornton was a healthy scratch on Sunday in Game 6 of the Bruins series against the Capitals. Shawn doesn’t know if he’ll be in the lineup for tonight’s Game 7, but he’s preparing as if he’ll play. (As told to Dan Duggan)
I don’t know if I’m playing tonight. I will prepare like I’m playing either way. I’d rather be prepared and then be told I’m sitting than not prepare and be told I’m playing. I really have no idea which way it’s going to go tonight. I’ll found out after warm-ups probably. I haven’t got a clue. Nobody said anything to me this morning so I’m assuming I’m playing and if I’m told otherwise, then I’m told otherwise. But like I said, I’d rather be prepared. I talk myself into thinking that I’m definitely playing and then prepare that way. I like these games so I’m very excited to be playing tonight. I’m hoping it works out.
We’re professionals so we get through the uncertainty, but I’d rather know. I’d rather have a definite, but if Claude doesn’t know for sure then I can’t know for sure. So I do my best to prepare to the best of my abilities. When there’s uncertainty it’s always there a little bit in the back of your mind, but you just soldier through.
