against chances dominated few gave maybe third won
We got scored against on the few chances we gave up. We only got scored against because maybe we were too aggressive. That same aggressiveness won us the game. We dominated the third period, gave up one shot, and we didn't look back.
aggressive chances gave maybe played scoring tremendous won
We really played a tremendous game. We gave up scoring chances because maybe we were a little too aggressive but that same aggressiveness won us a game.
benefit camp couple few fresh late looks maybe poor reliable training weeks
I think maybe the benefit was him getting the couple weeks off late in the year. He looks as fresh as training camp to me. He's been solid, he's been quick, just very reliable and very few poor decisions.
game maybe playoff smart three
If this was a playoff game he would probably play. But with the three days, maybe the smart thing to do would be patient.
carried maybe needed
Maybe Jochen needed to be carried off the ice, and then that's a suspension. That's sad, but maybe that's what it is.
cautious easy hard maybe player pull qualms scenario worked
Maybe another player would have called it a day already, but he worked hard and had no qualms about getting back in there again. Some players, it would be an easy scenario to pull back. He's not that cautious guy.
win
We just play to win games. If that's Marty, then it'll be Marty. If it's Ryan, then it'll be Ryan.
missed
We missed too many opportunities. We didn't convert.

We have to continue to grind away. The energy level of our team isn't great. We're mucking through it.

We expected to be a good team, but nobody expects something like this.
biggest game schedule year
I've said all year long we'll take the schedule one game at a time. It's an important game. Is it the biggest game of the year? Well, on our schedule it's next, so it is the biggest game for us.
explain guys lost number stand tough
It would be tough to stand here and explain to you guys how they had our number if we had lost tonight.
explain guys lost number stand tough
It would've been tough to stand here and explain to you guys why they had our number if we would've lost again. It's satisfying.
cheap game shot
It was unfortunate we got done in by a cheap shot at the end of the game by Tucker.
