fragile guys running zone
I thought defensively we were in much better position. We're a little fragile in our own zone sometimes and guys will get running around a little bit. I thought our positioning was much better.
detriment player
What makes him the player that he is, ... is also a detriment too.
bang couple knew next occasions puck simple turned
We knew they were going to come at us strong. We just wanted to keep it really simple and get the puck in deep, but we turned the puck over on a couple of occasions and the next thing you know, bang it's in the net.
bad everybody playing saying trying
We're just trying to get better. We're still in the hunt. As bad as everybody is saying we're playing and everything else, we're right there.
eight guys page reality
The reality is that we have eight new guys in our lineup. We have to get them on the same page as everyone else.
mistakes past successful
Over the past week-and-a-half, we haven't been successful and I started to make mistakes on the bench.
figured heard ice last mountain overly playing south
I wasn't overly surprised, ... We hadn't heard too much what was going on. I figured if he was going to be playing he would have been out on the ice (at South Mountain last week).
front guys rules stand
I would like to see some of their guys stand around, under the old rules, where they stand now in front of the net,
front good players
I thought our positioning was good and that we were able to keep their players in front of us. When you're chasing, that's usually when you get penalties.
expect moving puck putting turning
We just can't keep turning the puck over and expect to win. We're not moving the puck and we're just not putting the puck in the right place. We had too many turnovers.
feeling marty
You always have a comfortable feeling when you have Marty in the net,
accepted changing deciding defines kids toward work
We need to work toward changing what defines 'cool'. If we accepted kids more for who they are then they would be better at deciding what 'cool' actually is.
changed cultures days everybody funny game guys lunch nice occasions similar sitting soda today together whether
It's funny. I think the game has changed in that in the old days guys used to hang around a lot more together because everybody pretty well had similar interests. Today there's different cultures and different personalities. Now, not everybody does the same thing. When you do get occasions such as this, it's always nice to get out with your teammates. You find out a lot about each other when you're just sitting around, whether it's lunch or having a soda or whatever.
certainly guys
Not the same way as a Scotty did, but we certainly have guys who can play physical. I don't know how much now you're going to be able to do that kind of stuff.
