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.
good start team
We wanted to get off to a good start and this is a team we should beat.
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.
good road team
We have been a good road team all year. We've been very consistent, but I think we're even better at home. I think we are going to show that Saturday. We have to if we want to win.
confidence great job lacking missing night playing start struggling sure team
Right now, I think we're playing a team that's struggling and lacking confidence big time, and missing some guys. With the start we got it kind of made them feel like it was going to be a long night and we made sure we didn't let up on anything. We did a great job all night.
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.
battle expecting puck ready team tough
I think we're ready to play them when the puck drops, and we're expecting a battle for 60 minutes. When we do play 60 minutes, we're a tough team to beat.
extremely played team
I think under Jacques, we were very much a team that played extremely well defensively,
believed seven teams tournament win
I said even before this tournament that I thought seven teams could win this and I really believed that.
special teams tonight tough
Our special teams tonight were the difference. Five-on-five, I think we were the better team. It's a tough loss.
best both defense exciting offense plays teams
I think it should be a pretty exciting series. There's no question, I think both teams have a lot of offense and I think the team that plays the best defense is probably going to win, but I think there should be some fast-paced hockey.
centre certainly desire fair fun looking pressure takes team watch
He's going to play a big part on this team this year. I don't think it's fair to put too much pressure on him but we're looking for him to probably be a No. 1 centre and I think he has what it takes to do it and he certainly has the desire so it's going to be fun to watch him this year.
believe chance exciting good knowing playoffs teams
We believe we have a good chance this year, and we're going to make the most of it. It's real exciting to be able to be part of the playoffs again, knowing that we're one of the teams that has a chance to go all the way.
move puck skilled team tough
We're a very skilled team. When we move the puck the way we're capable, we're a tough team to play.
