best grew guys
It's kind of weird, because most of those guys I grew up with, and some of them were my best friends.
ends mistake seems starts
They capitalized on our penalties. We need everyone on the same page, and it starts with me. One mistake ends up costing us the game. This seems to be the story all season.
deserve
We got what we deserved. We did not play well and we did not deserve to win.
We got what we deserved. They were hungrier than we were and I don't know why.
deserve score sums
We got what we deserved. I think the score pretty much sums it up. We did not play well and we did not deserve to win. They were hungrier than we were and I don't know why.
felt
We felt like we had them where we wanted them.
best grew guys since
It is a little weird. All those guys are my friends, some of my best friends. I grew up with them since I was 10 years old.
bottom
We didn't play well, that's the bottom line. We got what we deserved.
angeles apart cost fell games key los monday penalties
The penalties started the problems, and I fell apart. We have to get better. We all fell apart out there in key situations. Penalties cost us games in Los Angeles (on Monday night) and here.
good played
We played all right, but all right is not good enough. We can't find a way to win, and that's kind of been the story on our season.
against took
They took away everything. I think the Finns showed them how to play against us.
bit might team together trying
They might be a little bit fatigued, but we don't care. We're trying to get together our own team and keep going on this roll.
blocking effort everybody good great guys half hopefully job minute season second
I think that our guys did a great job blocking them out. It was a good 60 minute effort from everybody and that's what we need. Hopefully in the second half of the season we are going to have this every game.
fell good penalties supposed teams
Penalties killed us and it started probably from me. We fell apart. And it's what good teams are not supposed to do.
