breaks good happen plays team tonight
When the team plays well, good things happen for the individuals as well. I got some good breaks tonight and was able to put them away.
benchmark few maybe nice
Maybe it's not as big a benchmark as it used to be a few years ago but it's nice and I think there's more to come.
confident good guy happy injured start
Obviously, it would be good to have Dom in there. But he's injured and we're just happy with the way Ray's been playing. He's never been there before, but you've got to start somewhere. We feel very confident in him and he's going to be the guy for us.
december definitely four games good half improve night olympic ourselves pushing road schedule second slow tougher trying
Obviously, it's going to get tougher, I think, in the second half because of the schedule and the Olympics. So, I think, right now, we're making the most of a good schedule for our team. I think we have only four road games in this month, and then December is tougher for us. But definitely after the Olympic break, we have a tougher schedule. But the way we're going now, I don't think we should slow down and we just have to keep pushing ourselves every night and keep trying to improve to be better.
definitely miss pull team together tough
We definitely will miss him, no question, but some things are more important than hockey. He's going through some tough times with his family. We'll just have to pull together as a team and play well without him.
It's just one of those games, couldn't do anything right.
best difference good hard job neutral overall puck smart
It's a big difference in the standings between us and them. They are working really hard and I thought for the most part we did a good job. You try your best and they do everything to clog it up in the neutral zone. Overall though, I thought we did a pretty good job being smart and getting the puck by them and making them take some penalties.
ahead enjoy far few hard ottawa question
It's hard to think that far ahead right now but once I get back to Ottawa there's no question there's more things that need to be done this year. But I'm going to try and enjoy this for a few days, first.
crowd maybe struggle win
It's been a big struggle for us and it's frustrating. Especially at home. You come back like we did and get the crowd into it and then can't win it for them. Maybe we've got to try some different shooters because we're not having success.
anymore easier fighting great guys hard holding momentum neutral spirit stop tougher zone
It's great to see a fighting spirit in us and not quitting. It used to be a lot easier holding guys up in the neutral zone and making it a lot tougher for the other guys to come in to fore check. You can't do that anymore so once you get some momentum it's hard to stop it.
chance great
It's great to have a chance to go out the right way.
learned salt
A lot of us learned from Salt Lake, and we learned that if you're not ready, anything can happen.
goals happen period played seemed took waiting
They played well in the first period and got up 2-0 on us. We scored some big short-handed goals that really got us going. It seemed like we were waiting for something to happen and when it did, we took over.
chances goal hard obviously played team tries works
They are a young team that works really hard and tries to be a spoiler. We played well and had our chances and the first goal was going to be big obviously and it didn't go our way.
