ability care good locker relax room score talent
It doesn't feel good at all. We know we have to get better in a lot of ways. You look around our locker room and we know we have the talent and ability to score goals, but right now we're being a little tentative. We've got to relax and let our talent take care of it.
cup emotions game happy losing scoreboard stanley
Obviously, we weren't happy with the way the game was going. Emotions get going when you look at the scoreboard and you're losing in the Stanley Cup Finals. And that's what happens.
age-and-aging front good hands hot power scores share
We're around the same age. He's a good power forward. He's got good hands in front of the net. He scores his share of goals. He can get really hot too which is a good thing.
forward goals half looking offensive score second side
Defensively, we've been doing really well, and offensively, we'd like to score more goals. I don't think that's a secret. Personally, I think the first half could have been better and I'm looking forward to the second half and contributing more on the offensive side of it.
against boost both chance excited fit goal good great guys hard heard knowing locker matter natural physical playing room score speed stanley three tony
I'm very, very excited. Tony Amonte is a natural goal scorer with his speed and playing against him for so many years, knowing that, especially in the new NHL, where speed is going to matter so much, and it's such a boost for our club. And Darren McCarty, three Stanley Cups, and he's so hard to play against. You play against him and he can skate, he's physical and he can score goals. And these guys I've heard nothing but good things from other players. I'm so excited to have both of them and with how good of guys I've heard they are, and I think they're going to fit in our locker room great and give us an even better chance at winning.
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.
literally second shot stanley winning
We were literally one shot away, one second away from winning the Stanley Cup.
great momentum whether
We got some great power-play opportunities and fortunately we were able to put it in. Those can be big momentum shifts one way or the other whether you get one or not.
five ourselves penalty team third trouble
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.
negative question
It was a negative year, no question about it.
chances creating feeling good last scoring six starting
These last six games, I've been feeling better and things are starting to roll. As a group, we're creating more scoring chances and it's good for everybody's confidence.

I sent (wife) Kara to try and find one but it wasn't in the stores. It will be cool to see.
challenge fast full
There's some grunting. The challenge is how fast you go from that tuck to that full position.
