Until we win some games, of course things are slipping away. I said all year long, and I don't want to make it as an excuse, but anytime somebody goes down from our first two lines, it's tough for us to replace ... We don't play the same way for whatever reason. I just hope it's the injuries.
Until we win a game, of course it's slipping away. We don't play the same way for whatever reason. I just hope it's the injuries. When we have all our guys back healthy, then I can answer that.
Well, there were no people there. I would be skating by myself.
I thought when we were down 1-0, we had an opportunity on the power play. We had an empty net and missed it. That was probably the biggest chance we had in the game. We have to be able to score on those chances.
I thought we were going to win. Some calls were tough against us, some calls were fair. We had a 2-0 lead, we should have been able to win the hockey game.
It hurts a lot more than it did after the first game. I can not really lift my arm or do anything.
Tom is a great guy. He's not only a good coach but I think he understands the life of the hockey player and how important it is off the ice to treat the players. The chemistry on the team is great and, so far, it's been fun for everybody here.
Two weeks, I can't get rid of it. It gets worse and worse and I cannot take anything. I can't sleep from the coughing.
We didn't respond to the stuff they played. We weren't smart enough.
We played against very good teams, playoff teams for sure, maybe candidates to win the Stanley Cup. They're already playing playoff hockey and I don't think we're playing it yet. The two games teach us we are not there yet. We have to play smarter.
We played 50 minutes with everything under control. We just have to learn how to finish the last 10.
We've got nothing to lose. We're almost dead. I said that if I could play, I was going to play. I didn't help much. Somehow we have to score goals.
We gave the other team a lot of odd-man rushes. Maybe we are tired and we're making mistakes, but this is not the way you want to go into the playoffs.
We didn't start very well. Since then we have been playing pretty good.
