Crawford on Turco

New Stars coach Marc Crawford was asked about Marty Turco's playing time and brining in a goalie coach. He didn't really answer, but here's what he had to say:

"With Marty I am going to be open to lots of things. Your goalie and the head coach have to have a great relationship. ... You have to be on the same page. There has to be an understanding and an expectation, and they have to feel like there is a two-way street. I sense with Marty that we are going to get along famously and we're going to look at anything to get him to that level that he wants to get to. That's the most important thing, Marty's desire to get back to the top. From people I've talked to - people that know him really well - he's an extremely motivated guy right now, and that is music to my ears. That's the most important factor. I am not going to make as much an impact as he is going to make. Hopefully I'll make a good impact on how the Stars handle him, and we're all after the same thing for sure."
