game kept major points puck shooting
That was one of the major points we keyed on before the game -- keep the puck away from him. We didn't and we couldn't get anything going. He just kept shooting the puck out.

We came out, started to work, won puck battles and forced them to take penalties.

We've been struggling of late and we're in a real dogfight in the division, so when we play games that we're supposed to win we have to ... beat these teams. These are the teams others in the conference have been piling up points against.

adding bunch games losing points power score win
Our power play didn't come through. It's a bunch of little things but they're adding up to big points we're losing out on. To win games you've got to score goals, and we just aren't doing that.
assessment fragile good saying
Fragile is pretty accurate. I think that's a good assessment of us right now. I'm not saying we don't want to do something, but we're not making plays. This is pretty much a must-win game. I mean, we need the points.
feels felt few game goal good hanging head help knew last matter step team time
Going into to the game, I knew I had to step it up. There's no sense hanging your head about it. You've got to go out and do the little things and help the team win. Last game I felt good, but didn't get too many chances. It feels good to get the first one. I knew it's only a matter of time before I notched my first goal and got a few points.
