result
Not too bad. The result has been pretty good.
chances couple empty few normally saves shots
We had a lot of chances and a couple empty nets. Luongo made a few big saves on shots that are normally goals.
control game glad guy move playing puck
I think he made my career. Playing with a guy who can move the puck like that and control the game like that ... just to be part of it was unbelievable. I'm glad I'm here tonight.
believe everyday good negative positive space stay talking team turn
We just have to verbally keep talking about it. You can't have negative thoughts, they take up too much space and energy. Obviously, there is a lot of that going on and now we need the results. You have to stay positive talking with each other on an everyday basis. It will turn around, you have to believe that. We are too good of a team not to do that.
equally expect experience happen hard knowledge looking obviously quickly understand ups
It's equally as hard to get back. I think the one thing that you have is the knowledge of the ups and downs, you have the experience of what you just went through. You know when to expect the different surges that happen and how quickly things can change. So I think you can go out there and understand the big picture, while obviously looking at the little things you have to do.
comfort tough
It's a tough question. You want to go in being hot, but you also want to have that comfort of being in the playoffs.
defense good lead offense rushes seem
They seem to be getting too many odd-man rushes lately, and good defense is going to lead to good offense and we just have to concentrate on that.
calm certain control gets good puck
It gets you hyper, more than anything. And how good is that on the ice, especially when you need to control the puck and be calm in certain situations?
good huge learn
We've got to take the good out of this and learn from the bad. Monday's a huge game.
few last shots tonight ways win
The last few games, we had been getting a lot of shots and chances, tonight that didn't happen, but as long as we find ways to win games.
coming ford great hockey kinds kurt locker reagan russell time
It was great back then because hockey in L.A. was the big thing. We would have Ronald Reagan and Gerald Ford coming into the locker room. Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell were there all the time and all kinds of other celebrities. It was cool.
broken
Nothing was broken (in my face). And the scar, hopefully, won't be too bad.
calm jokes
He's so calm back there. He jokes back there and just relaxes everybody.
mean start thinking
All you can think about is hockey. Sometimes you try to get away from it for a bit, but you can't go very long and you start thinking about it again. Everything, I mean everything, is hockey.
