believe fallen gotta last minnesota playing rid year
That's where we have fallen down the last two years, and it has killed us. If we get rid of those, we are playing .500 hockey, and we are right there with everyone else. That's what has been disappointing. You look at Minnesota last year and they were able to do it. We gotta believe that we can do it.

He made some real big saves. There were two or three plays, I stood up on the bench thinking they were in and he made the saves. If your goalie plays well in a tournament like this, you're going to have a chance, and tonight he definitely played well.

cry games left pick until
If we get them back, that's great. But until then, everyone else is going to pick it up. We can't cry about it now. We've got only 22 games left and we've got to go out there and get it done.
