huge points
It was a huge two points for us before the break.
ended liked
Even if it deflected, I would have liked to get it. I'll have to look at it (on replays), but I'm disappointed that it ended like that.
front physical playing success team
The team is playing real well in front of me. It was our physical play and the PK (penalty kill) was the success tonight. It was a team win.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
bit good lucky obviously save
Obviously when you get a shutout you did something good and the desperation save at the end was a little bit lucky but it was very important too.
great period played simple
We had a great first period and after that we played a great, simple game.
behind bury chance clear ended front looked turned zone
We had a chance to clear the zone and we didn't do it, and then it ended up going behind the net, and I turned one way and I looked in front and Ian was there to bury it five-hole.
against both great lead shot special teams tight tonight unit
Both teams play well when we play against each other. Tonight again, it was up to our special teams. Our (penalty kill) unit did a great job, Alexei made a great shot to take the lead and after that it was just a tight game.
