It's been a tough couple of days, but they showed up today and were upbeat and feeling good and that rubs off on all of us. We talked about that last night, we've got to relax. We're a very talented group, that's not in question, and we all want to work hard, that's not in question. It's just letting it go, just trusting it.

In our last couple of games, we've just been a bit sloppier than what our game is and we've given up way too many goals. We've got to get back to doing what we do and that's winning the defensive battles. In the last couple of games, we've been losing those and everybody in our room knows it. That's where well have to start in order to get better.

We got ourselves into penalty trouble. They had five in the third period, or something like that, and two five-on-threes. You can't give any team that many chances.
five hard ourselves penalties penalty third trouble
We got ourselves in penalty trouble tonight. I think we had five penalties in the third period. In a tie game, it's hard to get offense.

It was a negative year, no question about it.

ahead chance fun morning saw woke
We didn't like the way we woke up this morning and saw they had jumped ahead of us. That's what makes these back-to-backs so much fun is if you lose, you get a chance to get right back at it.
