ahead credit deserves good happened lots man means obviously process
I think it means a lot for Dany and it means a lot obviously for us because we all know what happened and the process that Dany had to go through. I think that this young man deserves lots of credit for not only doing it in a very good way, but also getting ahead of schedule.
bunch deserve obviously past people resilient situation tough turn
In the past years, this organization has been slapped more than we deserve it seems. But I think we're a pretty resilient organization. We showed people before that we can turn around and go through tough times as a bunch of pros. This is obviously another situation where we will have to adjust.
games hope lose obviously start stay teams winning
It's tough, because if you lose, you obviously lose ground, and if you win, you stay there. We just have to keep winning games and hope teams start getting in trouble.
awful bad basically couple games incidents obviously playing rightfully simple thrown
It's two incidents basically a couple of games apart. It's bad timing. We're playing obviously awful right now, so obviously everything is thrown at us and rightfully so. Right now, we're getting what we deserve, it's as simple as this.
obviously
There's going to be a lot of 5-on-4s and 5-on-3s because obviously the referees want to make a statement. It makes for some interesting hockey.

When you look at the standings, it's all jumbled up. There's still plenty of games. But you don't want to give up games that could come back to haunt you at the end of the year.

To represent your country is something you always dream of. He's good enough to play, but we see him in there every day working with the elastic bands, just trying to survive.
both came fight minutes playing puck sides strong suddenly teams tough
Those things are all about timing. I thought for the first 10 minutes it was tough for both sides to get some shots. Both teams were playing very strong defensively. You have to fight for every inch, and suddenly a puck came loose.
came couple good room toward
Toward the end, we got a couple of good chances, but we couldn't get the equalizer. He came up with some good saves. There was not much room out there.
dominated good news though three
Even though they've pretty much dominated us in the first three games, the good news is we're still right there with them.
looking
We went so long looking for the NHL goalie we were expecting. Now we have him.

Boom Boom was an incredible man who meant a great deal to me and I'm fortunate to have called him a friend and mentor. I'm sincerely honored to be a part of the same coaching fraternity and to follow his lead as an NHL Head Coach in Atlanta.
chased tonight typical
Tonight was not a typical Thrashers effort. We chased them all night. We didn't play our game.

To see McCabe back on the ice after 30 seconds speaks for itself ... case closed.
