bike fly gone hours point ride staying tomorrow until
There is no point in staying around when you can get a bike ride in at the rink. Then if we don't fly out until tomorrow we'll not have gone 48 hours without moving.
challenge group point team
Our team as a group was not up to the challenge and that is unacceptable at this point of the season.
few layer skates
We need a few skates to get the virgin layer off.
games houston
(That was one) of the grittiest games we've played. That Houston game was an eye-opener.
given goals last liked saw three
I saw a lot more that liked than I didn't like tonight. But we've given up three shorthanded goals in our last three games. And that's something that we've got to get better at.
bounce diminish far guys outcome
Our guys battled and I am not going to let this outcome diminish how far we've come in 2005. We'll bounce back in 2006.
couple eat experience good guys learn places
Our guys will learn from this experience and we'll get on it tomorrow. I know a couple good places to eat in Milwaukee, so we can just go back there on Friday.
ahead basically control intensity matched omaha realized run stays table taken
I think we've realized the intensity that has to be matched or taken into these games. If we run the table and Omaha still stays ahead of us, kudos to them, but basically we control a lot of our own destiny.
battle biggest game lead outcome plays time
I think any time you go into a game the most important person is your goaltender. He's going to lead you into battle - into the game. How he plays has the biggest outcome on the game.
good hockey played short tonight win
We played short tonight and got a good effort, but we need to win those hockey games.
breaks chicago dressing good guys played ship
We played well, especially during the first 40 minutes. Chicago got some breaks on goals. . . . We've got some good guys in our dressing room. We'll right the ship and right it quickly.
bury chances
We had chances to bury them early, but didn't.
great individual prospect
Once he got comfortable in that surrounding, he's really started to take off. I think this is a grade-A prospect because he's got great individual skills.
game
It was a big, big game for us. We didn't want to go 0-4.
