career era great gretzky played playing
He's right there. He's played a long career and he's still playing well. He's had a great career. He's a great friend. It was Gretzky and Lemieux in my era and he's right there.
anyone both
I didn't think anyone was going to score. Both goaltenders were fabulous. I thought it was going to go to a shootout.
came great speed stuff talk took
Great goal. Great move. He did the stuff we talk about all the time. He came with speed and took it to the net.
five good hate lie losing regular season tonight
I'm not going to lie to you, you hate going into the regular season losing like tonight's performance. We're making excuses, but we've got five pretty good regulars who weren't in the lineup tonight -- especially down the middle. We're real young down the middle.
detroit hope playing tonight win
I hope tonight was an off night. We've been playing well and a win over Detroit would have been huge.
game physical playoff team
In my mind, Calgary is the most physical team in the NHL. They play a playoff game every night.
both good guys power
I like our personnel, I really do. With the guys we have, we should be pretty good on both the power play and the (penalty) kill. We should be better, there?s no doubt.
active both feeding keeps
I like how it?s gone. The two of them, Pascal and Marc, are feeding off each other, and it keeps both of them active and involved.
both deep eight good
The goaltending was fantastic. Both goalies were fabulous. The shootout went eight deep -- that will show you how good the goaltending was.
difference hard period plays power second took
The first period we competed hard and battled hard and had some power plays and just couldn't capitalize. In the second they had some power plays and they took advantage. That was the difference in the game. After the first period they just took it to us.
great period
The first period was a great period for us. We capitalized on our chances.
chance colorado four game gave great kept played points three
Colorado played pretty well, and I thought it was a pretty even game. Pascal made three or four great saves. He kept us in the game and gave us a chance to get some points but we couldn't score.
