funny hockey might team took turn win
Once it took that long, I thought it might be a goal. I thought it might be kind of funny where one team celebrates and then they're going to turn it over and we're going to win the hockey game.
complete early game great held hockey lead marc played team
It was a great hockey game, it was our most complete game of the season. We got out to an early 3-1 lead and held on after that. Our team played very well. Marc Denis made some key saves.
both chicago gods hockey tough
To be honest, Chicago outplayed us in both games. They're going through a tough time, and the hockey gods have been with us.
cost great half hockey period played problem season third
We didn't show up to play for a period and a half and it cost us the hockey game. We played a great third period, but it's just one period -- we can't do it for 60 minutes. That's been our problem all season long.
character coming hockey hungry sluggish team
We started out pretty sluggish and they were a hungry hockey team and really put us down early. We showed a lot of character coming back.
best character coming hard hockey minutes played
We showed a lot of character coming back. We really competed hard and probably played the best 40 minutes of hockey this season.
dressing game guys hockey played team won
We were the better team tonight. We should have won the hockey game but we didn't. The guys played their tails off. I can't go in there (the dressing room) and tell them they didn't play well. They know they played well.
against hockey penalties periods
For two periods we were right with them. If it wasn't for the penalties I thought it was an even hockey game. Everything just went against us.
against chances finish good great hard hockey looking scoring trouble
We had a lot of good scoring chances in the first half. Then they went up 5-2 and it's pretty hard to come back against that team. I was looking for a great finish to the hockey game, but we got into trouble and they capitalized.
awful fortunate hockey played second third
We played awful hockey in the second and third periods. We were fortunate it was only 3-1.
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.
adam compete definitely guy hard knew players push team
This is definitely a big step. I knew our team was going to get better this year, with or without Adam Foote. Now, with the free-agent market, we get a guy like Adam. He will push our players to be better and they're going to compete hard every night.
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.
