best felt few high puck react reading square
That's probably the best I felt all year. I was able to react to a few high deflections, which is key. You know you're square to the puck and reading the play well.
believe
We've just got to believe in ourselves, and right now I don't think we are.
guys point trying
At that point he was just trying to get the guys going.
fans great
At the end of the day, the fans know that somebody's going to be winning. It's great for the fans, and they were into it tonight.
chance create great guys job played smart tried
We did a great job defensively. We played a smart game. We didn't try to create things that weren't there. I just tried to give our guys a chance to win.
against battle chance gave guys playing seemed solution team
I don't know the team well enough to give you a diagnostic solution to that. We gave up some odd-man rushes, which, from playing against these guys over the years, they never seemed to do. But as a goalie you have to try and battle through those and give your guys a chance to win.
pay rather
If we're going to have to pay escrow, I'd rather know right ahead.
block guys starting
I'm starting to get used to it. Starting to see what guys are doing and how they block shots, so I know where to look when they're going to do it.
chance control focus guys puck stopping trying
I was just trying to focus on the puck and give our guys a chance to win. You have to control the things you can control and for me, that's stopping the puck.
aside create effect focus great hopefully personally playoff team
Right now you have to put the satisfaction aside and focus on the playoff race. For me personally it's great, but for the team it's great that we were able to get this win. Hopefully this will create a snowball effect and we can keep on winning.
hand handle hit stick sticks
It hit my hand and went in the net. I had my stick there. That's the way the sticks are designed. The handle part is narrower, and that's where it hit.
felt rebounds since
I felt all right, (but) it's been a while since I played. I felt shaky, especially on rebounds and scrambles. Those got me.
easy great move stay
He made a great move and I was just able to stay with him. It made up for the easy one I let in the other night.
easy great kept move stay turn
He made a great move and I was able to stay with him. I kept it on my blocker and was able to turn it away to make up for an easy one the other night.
