hockey player lazy
A complacent player is a lazy player, and a lazy player is a loser.
exceeded goal players quietly reached
Every goal that we've quietly set in our room, our players have reached it as a team. As a team, we've exceeded what I've expected. What we haven't exceeded -- or reached -- is individuals, where we thought they should be.
brings chris deal jamie player simon skill tried type
We tried to get Jamie in the same deal as Chris Simon (two years ago). I look at (him) as a development type of player - a player who brings some skill to our team.
excellent forward huge interested last means player proven since three
Marcus is an excellent two-way player, proven in the NHL and can play all three forward positions. He is by no means a short-term acquisition. He is a player I have been interested in since last summer. What's huge for us is that we did not have to give up a roster player or a prospect.
areas good guys player puck splash
He's a good player. The thing about Dustin Boyd is he's a 200-foot player. There's some other guys that get a lot of splash because they're spectacular when they have the puck but he's a good player in all areas of the game.
challenges flaw mistake player stick
When you're young like that, you just have to stick to those things that you do really, really well. With a player like that, it's never a mistake or a flaw in his game, it's just about how he harnesses it and challenges it.
areas bottom guys handful job players tough
Their players have been better than some of our players in the tough areas of the ice, bottom line. We have a handful of guys that can do a lot better job of getting there.
cave good players
It's good to see them get rewarded, finally, because ... there are players that cave in at some point.
count everybody expects good guys players ready
After the first period, it wasn't 1-0. It should have been more for them. Early, we had some players that weren't ready to play and that's disappointing. It's guys that you count on and everybody expects to be good players.
ability affecting focus issue players playing purpose team top
The top end of our team is not playing very well right now. There is a focus or purpose issue with some of our top players right now and its affecting our ability to play 60 minutes.
ask good hockey league move national night omaha phil player playing send weakest yes
I could ask Phil to go on conditioning (assignment) and he could say yes or no. This way, I don't have to ask him. If I want to send him down, (I'll) send him down. We have two (goalies) playing in Omaha and 20 in the National Hockey League that could move here tomorrow. We're as good as our weakest player and the other night he was our weakest player. It's not acceptable.
comforting
The only thing that would be comforting for me would be that we do get to play them.

It seems like we're doing just enough to lose by a little.
hockey nuts years
It's the nuts and bolts time of the year and we don't have enough nuts and bolts.
