fight games left playoff until
You can look through the 30 games left and I don't think any of those games are going to be easy. It's going to be 30 playoff games for us. We're going to fight until the end and see what happens. It's all we can do.
bit game stuck tried weird
It was a little bit of a weird game. They tried to frustrate us but we stuck to the game plan. We battled them and got the result, and that's the most important part right now.
complete game score
We've got to find a way to score more goals. We have to play a complete game. I don't think we can get through another game like this.
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.
days forgot game ready regardless stick win
We have to stick with the plan. Right now the game is over, and we have to forgot about it and get ready for our other game, regardless if we win or loose. We have to play, and one of these days they will go in.
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.
until
Until it's over, I'm not going to tell you it's over.
chance extra great hard team work
I wanted to be here and I think we have a great chance to win. We have a great team and it will just take some extra hard work to get where we want to be. We will get there and I want to be part of it.
four score win
Sometimes you don't have to score four goals. We have to find a way to win the 2-1 and 1-0 games.
exactly hit skate
I don't know what exactly it was that hit me, a skate or something.
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.
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.
satisfied ugly win
It's the most important part to get the win and don't give them a point. If you look at that way, we can say we are satisfied with our game. We got the win. Sometimes it will be ugly, and it was one of them, an ugly one tonight.
against took
They took away everything. I think the Finns showed them how to play against us.
