bit far game record road start year
All year we have been a better on the road as far as our record is concerned. I think we should take a little bit of our road game and start implementing it at home.
happy sure
I'm sure he's happy, and we're happy he's here.
aggressive mad plays
I'm not mad at him or anything. He's an aggressive player, and he plays hard. That's what I would expect.
best coming guys series until
It's down to the best two-out-of-three now. These guys are going to keep coming until the series is over.
bit definitely few flying hit necessary seeing sitting surprise waiting watching win
It was a bit of a surprise that on their first few dump-ins you were waiting for someone to come flying in and hit you and they're sitting back at the blue-line. It's definitely not what (Edmonton) is used to watching and what we're used to seeing from them, but they're going to do what they feel is necessary to win a series.
against best chicago played three
We just played three (games) against Chicago and we had two with Columbus, so we still feel like we haven't played our best hockey. That's what we're working on right now. We've had lapses during games.
coming five goals last until
We could be up by five goals and they are still going to keep coming until the last buzzer.
bunch guys older sound
We have a bunch of older guys in here. Most of us were sound asleep.
against bit couple gotten guys nice periods played room strong third year
It would have been nice if we could have gotten a couple of them and give us a little bit of room earlier. We've actually played strong in the third periods against these guys all year long.
help obviously puzzle record
Personally, I think they should have a better record than what they do, but obviously things just weren't going right and they're going to see if Sergei can be part of the puzzle to help them get going in the right direction.
deter good playing
It's kind of comical that they think something like that will really deter you from playing good that night.
area bleeding chance clear finally front huge jimmy nice penalty puck second specialty stop success teams third zero
It's just nice to kind of stop the bleeding in that area and finally put a zero up there. They didn't get a lot of second and third chances. We had a chance to clear the puck out from in front of the net, and Jimmy made some nice saves. Hopefully, we can play a little better on the penalty kill, because specialty teams now are huge in the success of teams.
hot playoffs seems teams
It seems in this conference, every season, there are hot teams who make it in the playoffs and do a lot of damage.
hoping ice review soon tough
It is tough when you think you win. We were hoping if we got off the ice soon enough, they wouldn't review it.
