definitely miss team thoughts tough work
We're definitely going to miss him. There's no question. But there's some things that are more important than hockey. He's going through some tough times and our thoughts are with him and his family, obviously. We'll just have to come through this as a team and work that much harder.

We get the lead three minutes into the third and it's almost like we tried to protect it too much, that we were in too defensive of a mode. It's tough to turn the switch back on.

advantage best took tough wrong
Buffalo's goaltending wasn't the best they had, and we took advantage of that. When you get off on the wrong foot, it's tough to get back, and I think that's what we did to their goalies.

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.
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.
