continue push road teams tough win
The road's been a pretty tough place for most of the teams in this league. We just want to continue to push and continue to win these road games.
fortunate found game push room
We're fortunate to come out of here with two points, but it's a game we found a way to win. That room always responds. You know when you push them what you're going to get.
deserve determined difference encourage guys hard playing push room somebody
You really do get that feeling. Those guys in that room deserve a lot of credit. They push each other. They encourage each other. They're hard on each other at times. But they like playing with each other. Those guys are determined to have somebody make a difference every night.
beat both ended front huge marty puck pushed ryan screen shot sound
I thought both of them were very good. I thought Marty had a very sound game, made a lot of big saves. Ryan had one screen shot beat him that he didn't see at all, and then a huge scrum in front of the net, where the puck ended up getting pushed over. He was very good.
harder involved looking pushing start
J.P.'s looking real good. I like the way he's skating. We're going to start pushing him harder and harder, get him involved in more stuff.
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.
continue energy grind level team
We have to continue to grind away. The energy level of our team isn't great. We're mucking through it.
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.
expected expects good nobody
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.
