advantage legs regular tired
In playoffs, I think home-ice advantage is not as big as it is in the regular season. I think everybody's prepared. There are no tired legs or anything like that.

He's right at the top of his class, there's no question. He's going to be a star.
carry few finger score wish
I don't know. I have had some success, been able to score a few goals. It's nothing I can put my finger on. I wish I could carry that over.
We think we're going to be a really competitive club. But we know it's not going to be easy.
games good lately played
We've played a lot of games lately and it was good to get a win.
earned period power ready
We weren't as ready as we should be. If we take 'em, we've got to kill penalties. They had pretty much the whole first period in power plays, and they earned that.
close fans hear holding hurt imagining sitting time took
When you get that close and then you hear the other team, the other fans celebrating to 'Simply The Best' and 'We Are The Champions', that hurt. It hurt a lot. We didn't know who was holding the Cup, but each time someone else took it, you could hear the fans go nuts. We're just sitting there, soaking all of this in and imagining what it would feel like ... if it was us.
exciting thinking
What's important is to keep going but yeah, we're thinking we want to clinch. But then we want the division. Those are exciting things, for sure, and they're in our sight.
bad close front game single strength style terrible zone
We were terrible in front of (Boucher). It wasn't even close to the style of game we want to play all the way around. It was a terrible game. We were very sloppy. Our strength is in our own zone and every single one of us was bad in our own zone today.
came draw good
We came out and had a good start, and were able to draw some penalties.

To be a low scoring team like we are and to get the number of wins we have, he's easily the biggest reason. The fans were letting him know tonight and us as players, we appreciate everything he's done this year, it's been amazing to watch.
