against deserved fate hard team worked
It's (bad) that we lost. We worked hard. We deserved a better fate. I think we showed them that we're going to be a hard team to play against in this building.
centre cheating counteract drive guys jacques passes red systems trying work
So look for him to come up with something. I know in Minnesota, Jacques is trying to do the same thing. It's interesting to see what's going to work. We're going to have to work in a lot of systems to try to counteract no red line. It's probably going to drive me out of my mind, but they're going to have to find something to counter long-ice passes and guys cheating through centre ice.
against circus counteract defend half hitchcock jacques ken last line office red sitting system systems trying work year
I think it's going to be a circus for them. I know Ken Hitchcock was sitting in his office for the last year and a half trying to come up with a system to defend against the no red line (two-line pass). So look for him to come up with something. I know in Minnesota, Jacques is trying to do the same thing. It's interesting to see what's going to work. We're going to have to work in a lot of systems to try to counteract no red line.

I don't think it takes the brain of a rocket scientist to figure out that they had more jump than we did. We didn't have any kind of work ethic that they did. You have to start off with a guy like myself . . . and it goes right down the line.
ability afraid confidence failure
We have no confidence in our ability and no confidence that we are doing it right. We just made too many mistakes. We are afraid of failure and doing something wrong.

We're a strong union, but we are frustrated with the lack of communication, the lack dialogue and negotiation by the NHL,

I think our team put forth a hell of an effort. I thought we dominated the hockey game.
against cups fact guys holding last played player points usa
I think they were holding the fact I haven't played in the last two World Cups against me. I'm a lot better player than my points indicate. I'm one of the guys that have (got) the USA to where it is today.
believer both firm guys hits jobs kinds point time
My whole point was that there's a time and a place to make hits like that. I'm a firm believer that pre-season isn't the time for those kinds of hits. And both of us are guys that been around, our jobs aren't at stake.

That's the most you've seen Bryan McCabe hit anybody in a long time,

I was never angry at the way I was hit. I think it was a very clean hit, actually a great hit by Denis,

Last night was really deflating. For us to come back with an energy-filled game shows that this team is ready and poised for a lot of hard work. It's really gratifying.
