looking motion puck range shooting taylor week
He's shooting the puck pretty well. The range of motion and everything's good. Taylor I would put in the day-to-day category, but you're probably looking more at a week to 10 days.
healthy team weeks
He's sore. . . . Could he play? I think if it was a do-or-die situation, we may take the chance. But we need a healthy team weeks from now, not right now.
contact mean program resume severe time week
He's been put on the concussion program again, but the first one was so severe I think the program may go longer. There's no set time on when he can be back or when he can even resume practice. Symptom-free for a week doesn't necessarily mean he can have contact again. That could take weeks.
change contact doctors feels last wants week
He's doing better. He's on his way back to Buffalo, and he feels better. We had contact with him yesterday, and he wants to see our doctors to see when he can get back skating. That's a big change from last week where he wasn't doing so well.
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.
faith ownership
I'm very appreciative from ownership all the way down, the faith they've shown,
decided four games guys handle hurt minute playoff series three wear
In a long series, they're going to wear down all our old guys. I think our young guys can handle a long series. You look around at every playoff series, they're not decided in three games and they're usually not decided in four games. Not for a minute do I think a long series will hurt our team.
looking
I'm not a doctor, but he's looking at 20 to 30 stitches,
game happy liked played sound
I liked the way he played the game. He really had a sound game. I'm getting happy with where the team's at right now.
ask dealt people
It's something a lot of people have dealt with. Really, all we ask is that you say a prayer.
five game goal greatly guys night skate stand
Every night it's highlight-reel goal after highlight-reel goal. You'll get to see probably five a night in our league. And the guys that can skate are the guys who stand out. I think the game has greatly improved.
advantage balanced built four games ice plays schedule team
Everybody's schedule is tough. I think we have one of the toughest. I don't know if there's another team that plays 17 games in 30 days. But I think the advantage we have built in is we've utilized four lines. We've been a pretty balanced team when it comes to ice time.
attention certain drafted glory next people pride saying
The attention has been there for Crosby. That comes with being drafted No. 1 overall, Canada's pride and glory and certain people saying he's the next Gretzky.
game however key time
That flurry he faced, he made the saves. However he made them, he made them at a key time of the game for us.
