happy
We're not happy with the point, but we'll take it.
challenge good great job last next score
The referees did a good job in the last game, so that's encouraging for the next game. If they have to do that to score on me, that's a great challenge for me, too. But if they want to do something stupid, they'll be in the box.
overall progress small worked
Overall I made a lot of progress this year. I worked on the little details, the small things that make you better.
change difference game great kept played second
Roberto played great and kept them in the game during the first and second periods. The difference was Kovalev. He can change a game like that with his skill.
good key rest shut
I think that was the key tonight, the 5-on-3, because we shut them down pretty good the rest of the game.
bother mean push scare trying
I think they're trying to bother me and that must mean we scare them in some way. I think they're trying little things like that to get us out of our game. When they try to push things to the limit, I think we have to take that as a compliment.
believe believing great jump period played second start tiring
We need more jump and start believing we can do it. They played a great second period and it was very tiring for us.
help matter step team
That's what I'm here for. We have two goalies and when needed, we've got to step up and do the job. The matter is to help the team right now, that's what we need.
direct opponent playoffs second slip spot tough
That's a tough loss. They're a direct opponent for a spot in the playoffs and we let that one slip away in the second period.
best guess playing
I was playing my best in the overtime. I guess I wasn't that tired.
across pass saw shut tried watching
I saw the shots, but we shut them down. We tried to play on (Jaromir) Jagr and we were watching the pass across ice.
against chance compete letting mentally physically ready team third
You just want to give your team a chance by not letting in the third one. But I think the whole game, we were very ready mentally and physically to compete against them.
expect game halfway lost played third
We played very good, and when you are up 1-0 halfway through the third period, you expect to get something out of it. That is the way it is, we lost the game and that's that.
help matter step team
We have two goalies, and when needed, we've got to step up and do the job. The matter is to help the team right now.
