beat games motivation played playing previous team trying
We battled. We played better (Sunday) than we had in previous games in this building. They're playing the spoilers, and that's their motivation to beat any team trying to get in the playoffs.
games goal hard playing whenever
The goal will be to play as hard as I can whenever I get out there. Playing well these two games will be beneficial.
early saying turn
We have to find a way to turn that around. We keep saying it's early in the season. It's going to be too late. We have to turn it around.

camps decent follow goes hopefully nights proud shoot sort start three
My first three camps I never had a goal. Sometimes, you get nights where pucks sort of follow you around and everything you shoot goes in the net. I am not complaining. I am proud I had a decent start to the camp and hopefully I am making an impression.
bad great hockey proved since team third tough
My experience, so far, since I've been here, is that it's tough to know which team will show up. In the third period, we proved that we're not a bad hockey team. We're a great team, when we come to play.

We worked all year to get home-ice advantage and now that's not the case. We've lost it now. I've always thought Game 1 is one of the most important games of a series. It determines who takes control, who's in the driver's seat.
