I felt Dave could have gone two or three ways with this decision. Hockey is a difficult business. I think he could have made a strong decision in a number of ways but I'm comfortable where he's gone.

It's nice to do it in this place, where it's very difficult to play.

It's been a very difficult couple of days, as you can imagine. I wasn't able to accomplish the job I was brought here for. I had a vision for this club and it included a Stanley Cup and a parade.

We were certainly guilty of not going to people assertively. We had a difficult time with them tonight.

I think it was an extremely difficult year for Todd. It is probably understated to say it's been the most difficult year for any player that has played in the NHL.
bottle difficult nice period third
If we can bottle that third period and take it with us to L.A. (this Thursday), we'll be all right. It's nice to come into this place, where it's very difficult to play, and get a win.

The second period was all Sharks and I liked the way we responded.

Right now Todd is playing so well, we could probably play him in net.

Our thinking was last night he was ready to play.
anybody division effort fooled tough ways win
Our division is a tough division and we've got to find a way to be better in it. I don't think anybody can look at our effort and say we're upset, but I don't think we can be fooled by it either. We've got to find ways to win these divisional games, they're very important in the standings.
chances eliminate game goals three type
The three giveaways we made on the goals were big errors. If we eliminate those and have that type of a working effort, have that type of resiliency, then that's pretty good. We'll take our chances with that type of game any time.
healthy winning
Winning a lot at the end is important, but not everything because you need to be healthy going into the playoffs.

We can't get discouraged. We have to find a way to get 3 or 4 per cent better.

We had to play a spirited game and the defense came up large.
