deep fact forget game half periods played puck second wore
The second half of the game I thought we played really well. We were able to get the puck in deep and we were able to keep them in their end for long periods of time, forget that fact we haven't done a whole lot lately, and we just wore them down, I think.
adjustment creates game good learn total winning
You always learn from winning. Winning creates good habits. At the same time, it's a total different game over here than it is in the NHL. And it's going to be an adjustment going back to the NHL again.
black changed game wore
I wore black all game and just changed to an old one at the end. I'm superstitious more about not being superstitious.
against games good strong tough year
We know they're going to be a tough test. They're a strong team, they've got a lot of speed. We've had tough games against them all year and this should be a good series.
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.
against bring fear game hopefully smelled tomorrow
We all smelled the fear of that game against Switzerland. Hopefully we can bring that out tomorrow as well.
boost building coming game knew playoffs win
We all knew coming into this building it would be a hard-fought game. It was a big boost for us going into the playoffs to win a big game like that.
game goals hard mistakes period road three
We kind of game them two of the three goals in the first period with mistakes we made. It's hard to play on the road that way.
biggest felt game
The biggest thing we had in this game was the passion. From the beginning, we wanted this game, and the Czechs felt that.
controlled definitely game penalty turned
That turned the game definitely in our favor. When we got a 4-minute penalty after that, I think we controlled the game pretty good.
games good sure today
He didn't say too much. I'm not sure why he didn't play today but I'm sure with the back-to-back games ... it's good for us just to have him around.
games
Some games will have more chances, more goals. It's as long as we get the W (that matters).
affect betting black game hockey integrity mark obviously until
The integrity of the game is obviously very important. And betting on hockey is obviously something we don't want. Until you know all the facts, you don't know how it's going to affect the game or put a black mark on it.
close game tie
If you play well, you make your own luck. Obviously, it was close for them to tie the game up, but overall, I thought we were the better team.
