NHL ENTRY DRAFT


June 22, 2002


Steve Eminger


TORONTO, ONTARIO

Q. How do you feel about going to Washington?

STEVE EMINGER: I'm really excited. I just hear great feedback from a lot of people about this organization. It's just been a great day for me when Washington selected me, I'm just so, so overwhelmed right now.

Q. What's it like doing this, basically in front of your hometown crowd? You have a lot of people up there in the stands with you.

STEVE EMINGER: Yeah, that was really nice. I had I think 120 people here, and to enjoy this moment with my family and friends, it was really nice. They can take part in that, as well. I heard the cheer, too, when I got selected and it just kind of sent shivers down your back.

Q. Before the draft, did you have any idea that Washington was this high on you?

STEVE EMINGER: You have a bit of a feeling. I think with this draft, you can't really predict anything. There's so many drafts in it. You might have a bit of an idea, but I wasn't sure at all.

Q. Another year in the juniors or the NHL? And what do you have to work on your game to get there?

STEVE EMINGER: I just think I'll work on my overall strength. With a good summer program this year, it will develop. I'm not going to be rushed into anything, but we'll just take it by what happens.
