advantage bad gives guys helps involved job legitimacy lose people perspective played
Once you've played in the NHL, I think you get a little misunderstood sometimes. These guys, with the salaries involved now and the way they get treated, people can lose perspective that these guys are human, too. Unfortunately, the job they've chosen, you don't get to have a bad day. It helps that I played in this league; it gives you a legitimacy right away ... But I don't know if there's that much advantage to it.
bad late maybe might taste tough
Maybe tomorrow, it might feel a little better. But right now, there's a pretty bad taste in the mouth. It is a point, but it's tough when you had two that late in the game.
bad left pairs putting team together trying
Without Zhitnik in there it left a hole. We were kind of putting pairs together and trying to see what worked. It's a bad team to be trying to do that against.
bad flag forward good line played
York's line has played outstanding. They're the flag bearers for us. Every other forward was iffy. They'd have a good shift, then a bad shift. We never generated any momentum.
body front hard seen shooting stick team ton worked
They worked to get into those shooting lanes, they worked to get a body part or a stick in front of the shots. It's how they've had success. They have a ton of skill, but they also work as hard as any team we've seen this year.
crazy easy experience great happens hat help hockey matter opportunity playing tip
It was a crazy day. I tip my hat to the players. It isn't easy playing in that environment. ... It's a great opportunity for me. The experience I'm going to go through here no matter what happens will help me in my hockey career.
believe believing difference good looked saw start team
It looked like what we pictured from this team at the start of the season. The difference is believing in ourselves. We saw a lot of good signs.
time totally
At this time of year, it's totally unacceptable to get outworked. I thought that's what happened, especially the first 20 minutes.
carry exactly ice
That's exactly who we didn't want to have carry it down the ice on a 2-on-1.
dangerous hockey line mesh speed together type
That's a lot of skill, a lot of speed and a lot of hockey smarts all on one line. They mesh pretty well together and they're the type of line that should be dangerous every night.
eyes opened
Around the league, we've opened some eyes with what we've done.
bit point team teams
We feel we can do it. We feel that we've got a lot of firepower on this team and teams can underestimate us at this point . . . We've all got a little bit to prove.
compete hard ready seemed surprise
We seemed tentative. It did surprise me. I thought we were ready to go. We didn't compete as hard as we should have.
rewarded
We wanted to come out skating. We did, but didn't get rewarded for it. We generated a lot of chances, but just didn't put them in the net.
