great hard hopefully needs shot success work
Hopefully this is what he needs, a little shot in the arm. He needs to find a way to get success and hard work is a great start.
battles guys job physically players preparing puck ready seem win
We have to, as players and as coaches, do a better job of preparing guys to play. We were not ready physically or mentally. We didn't seem to win many puck battles tonight.
key saves
He made some key saves at big times. I thought he was outstanding.
guys recent shining
Some of our recent games, it's been our young guys who have been our shining stars.
best guy hardest hockey hole minutes playing spread
He was playing his best hockey of the year. It is a hole and it's a lot of minutes that need to get spread around. Your top-minute guy is the hardest guy to lose.
He didn't see that shot. It's not his fault.
anyway consistent focused himself pressure puts reasons rick
I think Rick puts a lot of pressure on himself anyway and I think that's one of the reasons he hasn't been as consistent as he'd like. It's something that he's focused on lately.
elevator everybody trip
I think everybody should take a trip up that elevator once in their life.
games learn row segments ways win
I think he's got to, at some point, learn how to play long segments of games and learn how to win when you don't feel 100 percent. In the playoffs, if you want to win one or two rounds, you have to go 10, 15 games in a row and find ways to win when everything isn't just right.
doubt fast game goals handle score speed surprised took
I think he was surprised at how fast the game was at this level. I don't think there's ever been a doubt he can score goals and handle the puck, but I think it took him a little while to incorporate more speed into his game.
frustrated gets goal great pick
I thought he made some great saves. I thought he got frustrated on the first power-play goal by them. And we don't really pick him up. He battled so hard, I think it gets frustrating.
best control eight key last minutes moving player puck rebound saves seven
I thought in the last 30 minutes he was the best player on the ice. I thought his rebound control was great. I thought his moving of the puck was outstanding. He made probably seven or eight key saves for us down in the last 25-30 minutes.
against belief game overcome teams
We're up against teams that have a little more belief in their game right now. We have to overcome that by outworking these guys.
against good guys thursday tonight
We had enough guys do enough good things. It's not going to be good enough on Thursday against the Rangers, but tonight it was good enough.
