good
When you do it and do it well, it's a good sting. That's the difference.
good nice period rewarded team third together wrapped
We got rewarded for the good things we've been doing. It was nice to see the team come together a little bit. The third period kind of wrapped it all up.
follow good grind hit people plays puck seemed
The puck seemed to follow him around. He was always on the puck and making good plays. He's not going to hit a lot of people or grind you up. But he makes good plays under pressure.
earn focused good great group leaders ourselves preparing prove time
We've got a great group of guys, great leaders who've focused on preparing for the playoffs. This is the time when you earn your stripes. We've put ourselves in good position; now we have to go prove it in the playoffs.
believe competition division focus good grasp happy lock players playing recognize seven teams
We have a real focus on these seven division games. Hopefully, we have a good grasp on being able to lock up the division. Believe me, I'm happy we're playing teams like this. Our players recognize competition, and this is good competition for us.
credit defensive deserves dictates equation front good great guy last line marty numbers performance played team time year
I thought our team played a very good team defensive game. Hatcher had a great year and we played very well in front of Marty, but you can't get numbers like that without having an unbelievable performance from your goaltender. Marty deserves a lot of credit for that. He's the guy who a lot of time dictates a lot of the equation as the last line of defense.
confidence earned good guys job played team tight together
Our guys have earned the right to be a good team and a tight team. We've played pretty well together all year, so they have confidence they can get the job done.
answered good guys marty
Our big guys answered the bell, Marty included, and that's a good sign.
cares credit good number numbers wins
He's had a very good year. The number he cares most about is wins. The other numbers are inconsequential. That's a credit to him; 38 wins is a lot of wins.
care good seeing taken time
He'll get that taken care of and then take a little time to get it healed. The good thing is, he's seeing clearly.
couple game good pressure took
He made a couple good saves. He took a lot of pressure this game on himself.
camp determined ethic games good sure training wants work
He's been real good in training camp and the preseason games. He's got a real determined work ethic right now and I think part of that is because of the injury. He wants to make sure that he's all the way back.
face good hopefully level several slap turned urgency
Hopefully this is a real good slap in the face for us. The level of urgency has to be turned up several octaves now.
execution face game good hard hopefully lose move neutral played players puck slap top turned zone
Hopefully this is a good slap in the face for our players. We turned the puck over in the neutral zone 30 times. When you lose execution its hard to get it back. I'm disappointed in the way our top players played and execution. It's just one game and we have to move on.
