‘”If I think [about] my whole career in Buffalo and before I came to Buffalo, I’m not sure if I’ve ever been [part of] a team where’s there’s been a winning culture,” Ristolainen admitted. “Sometimes you ask the question, ‘what is it?’ I mean, I haven’t seen it before or in Buffalo. This year, we built our culture a little bit better than the previous years, but I don’t know if a lot of guys have been on winning teams for winning organizations. Personally, I haven’t. Unfortunately, the team I played [for] when I was back in Finland, I was in the same position. The coach got fired every year, players got traded, the [general manager] got fired. I don’t really know. What is it? I haven’t seen it, [but] I wish.”‘
