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.
coaching deal doubt dressing handle media room staff totally understand
It's not something that in this dressing room is on our mind. I totally understand the media making a big deal out of this, but the coaching staff is going to handle this the right way, I have no doubt about that at all.
couple defense great guys sprung
They sprung a couple of guys once in a while, but we know Dom is there and he's going to make some great saves. Our defense has been overshadowed because we have such a great offense.
bit funk jump seem tonight
They seem to be in a little bit of a funk right now, ... They didn't seem to have a lot of jump tonight and we're going really well.
good momentum pressure question stop
They put some good pressure on us. It started with a penalty, it got them momentum and we couldn't stop it. That's something we have to get better at, there's no question about it.
guys ice nice
A lot of guys got a lot of ice time. It was nice to see everyone play hard. This was a big win.
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.
