against bottom games points teams week
Yeah, a point's good. But when you have two games in one week against the teams at the bottom of your division, you want to come out with more points than two.
change goes good lose maybe mistake played
We played a good game. You lose and what do you do? You don't change a lot. It's unfortunate. First period, we maybe made one mistake and it goes in our net.
beat expect playing ready seen sure team work
They've been very hot, of late. I really haven't seen them this year, so I really don't know what to expect. I'm sure they weren't playing that well (when the Penguins beat them 6-0). I expect a team that's going to work hard, be very skilled, and we've got to be ready for them.
great night played puck rushes saves turned
They played patient. When we turned over the puck they made great rushes all night long. Dany made some great saves out there on some of those rushes. We've got to be better. We can't turn the puck over as much as we did.
hope pick team thoughts
Your thoughts are with him. You hope the team can pick it up.
series
The way the series has gone, it's pretty evenly matched. That's why there's so many one-goal games.
games good guys hershey hope
I think you have to (get up for the Hershey game). You hope the guys are up for it. They've been some of the better games too. They've all been good games. I think there was one blowout.
accept five fourth game lack lose
Lack of effort. If you lose that way and you got an effort. If you lose that game, fourth game in five nights, and got an effort, you can accept it a little bit. When you don't have the effort, you can't accept it.
capable confident kid knowing
Knowing the kid and knowing what he's capable of, I feel confident in him.
games hard high moving overall physical playing progress puck standard
He did set a pretty high standard in the first games he played. It's hard to live up to that. But I think he made a lot of progress in his physical play and just his overall play, really. He's been playing better offensively. He's moving the puck well.
game looking overall starting trend worries
Looking at the overall game I think that it's starting to become a trend and it worries me. Defensively, I think we're slipping away. That's the trend that really worries me. We've got to get that part of our game back.
almost depend good hard max means nice numbers plays
He's put up some real good numbers while he's been down here. Max plays his game. He plays hard every night. I can depend on him defensively almost every time. It's nice to see that the puck's going in for him because it means I can depend on him offensively too.
line lines seems trying work
Chemistry. I was trying to find some lines that would work together. That line seems to be working pretty good.
either wrong
In a way I feel I can't go wrong with either (goalie).
