both great played saves
Both goaltenders made great saves in the game, Dom just made more. From where I was standing, he was the difference. I thought he played great. He made great saves.

I think his game has come around. Going into the playoffs, you have to have good saves and today we got good saves.

It was a great team effort. Marty made the big saves when we needed them, and I thought we had some great support around him. Overall, that was as good a game as we've played all year long.
allow everybody goal heck hockey key playing problems saves starts tough win
Part of it is, you look at who's playing goal now. I think their problems have stemmed . . . Theodore's had a tough time. Everybody realizes he is a heck of a goalie, but he has struggled. It starts there. If you're not getting key saves or if you're not just getting the saves that allow you to win hockey games, it makes it tough on the team.
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.

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.
