close played toronto until
Toronto played well. It was close right until the end.
desperate played slump teams
We've had some injuries, we went into a slump and we've played some teams that are more desperate than us in some cases.
extremely played team
I think under Jacques, we were very much a team that played extremely well defensively,
best break buffalo build came confidence played playing since team test
We know that we have been playing well since the break and Buffalo has probably been the best team we have played in a while. We know that it was a big test for us and we came out on top. It is going to build our confidence even more.
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.
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.
calm great looked nervous played
He played great and he looked really calm in there, not nervous at all,
best power
The power play was probably the best we've had it all year.
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.
expected happen kicking mistake understand
We kind of expected him to be suspended. Kicking has no part in this game. I understand the suspension. It's tough. Things happen so quick, but you shouldn't kick anyone. I think he realizes his mistake and I don't think you will see him do that again.
hockey play depth
Probably not. Their depth and our play right now...it doesn't look too good.
team thinking ice
I think it's just a coincidence that the North American teams are out. Most of us here have been playing in North America for a long time. Our knowledge of the big ice has been world championships here and there, same for the Canadians and the Americans. I don't see it as an advantage.
behind conference everybody executive okay support sure
This was Ted's idea. He had the support on the (Aug. 31) conference call, but he wanted to make sure that everybody was okay with him being the executive director. Hopefully, we'll be able to put this all behind us.
