dirty dogs excellent four great hockey net nose puck relying score success tried
We've been getting some excellent hockey by all four lines, and I think that's why we're having success right now because we're not just relying on our big dogs to score the goals. I just tried to get the puck on net and Murray, getting his nose dirty once again, made a great deflection.

accidental happened happens inch personally stuff year
I think it was an accidental play. That happens a lot in this league. It's happened to me personally this year where I got clipped pretty much in the same spot, and if it would have been an inch closer, I would have had the same injury.

I think you need to focus obviously more on winning hockey games than maybe redemption. I think redemption will come with beating the other team.
