feels good
It?s good for you. It feels good. Once in a while.
anyone behind closer good score sure
It was closer than the score indicated and we just wanted to make sure that we didn't let anyone behind us, and we did a good job, especially in the first.
coming game good last pepsi since time
I haven't had a lot of time to think about coming back because I just got back. I haven't been here since last May. It's been a while. . . . It will be good to play a game back at the Pepsi Center.
behind few good guys hard hurts likes past start team
When you're a young team it's probably better to start from the bottom. It hurts. It hurts a lot. You don't like it. No one likes it. But you learn. Sometimes it's a hard way to learn. That's behind us now and we have to look ahead. I think guys feel pretty good about what's been going on here the past few months.
definitely good juniors looking past
Looking at his stats -- and what he's done in the past with the world juniors -- he's definitely having a good year.
age department depth dressing good guys last leaders leaders-and-leadership leadership matter tournament
Last tournament (2004 World Cup), there were so many good leaders in that dressing room, guys know what's on the line. I think we have a lot of depth in the leadership department no matter what the age is.
classy definitely fun juice move
It was a classy move by them. It was fun being back. I was excited, boy. I definitely had a lot of juice in me.
bring chance character night win
They (Calgary) come out every night and bring it. If we come with that character every night we will have a chance to win every night.
everybody room
Everybody in that room is disappointed right now. That's just the way it is.
forget lead obviously pressure tonight
There's obviously pressure for us to be there. When they got the lead tonight we were tentative, it's like it was in our nerves. We have to forget about that and regroup.
front lucky somebody whacked
Somebody was in front and made the defenseman concentrate on someone else, ... I just whacked at it and it went in. I was a little lucky there.
canada huge people
Obviously, this hurts. It?s a huge letdown. For people in Canada, if we?re not there in the final, we?re not a success.
again blue care cost job knew obviously olympics ready stay top
Obviously my first job is being ready for the Blue Jackets, and I knew if I got dinged again with the Olympics approaching it could cost me. So that's obviously in the back of your mind. You just want to take care of it and stay on top of it.
grow
It's OK. We've got a lot of young guys. We'll grow together. We'll see what we can do.
