blame chances created goal mistake puck second
I made a mistake on their second goal to give the puck up on the wall. I'll take the blame for that. They created the chances and created more opportunities and they got the goals.
dull good half period pick puck scoring second speed third throughout
We really got going in the second half of the second period and in the third period, ... We got good scoring chances, we got the puck to the net, we got our speed going. I think more and more throughout the preseason you're going to see the new NHL, where they will pick up speed and not have those dull moments.
blink left looked minutes saw second shots side sure whenever
I can play whenever they want me to play. I told them that. I'm well rested. I looked up with about 5 minutes left and saw 38, 39 shots and had to blink for a second to make sure which side it was.
knew questions
I knew questions were going to be asked.
cheated create exciting felt front good guys hard harder invested money office paid people situation spent team wants
It was hard for a while because a lot of people spent money, invested money and felt like they got cheated a bit. Now they felt like they should give those guys (in ownership) a chance, and it has paid off. The more people that are there, the more exciting it is, the harder the team wants to work, the more the front office wants to create a good situation for the city, for the fans. So it's like a big wheel, and it makes a big difference.
good inside knew played stress
I hadn't played in a while, and getting down, 2-0, is not a very good way to start, but I didn't stress too much about it. I knew we had something inside of us.
chances created goals
They created the chances and created more opportunities and they got the goals.
coaches definitely honor season year
There's not a whole lot of coaches that can say they've got 300 wins. That's definitely a big honor, especially in a season like this year where it's a 100-point season. It's big. That's big all around.
cheer hard honest twice work
That's never happened, to be honest with you. When that happens, you work twice as hard because you want to keep it up and give them more to cheer at.
came exploded good inch quick shot
Sanderson's got a quick release, a quick shot. When he came in, he went to his forehand. I exploded over there. He shot it about an inch over my pad, a good move. He's got quick hands, a lot of speed.
bit care legs practice shaking welcome
I didn't care one bit if my legs were shaking at the end of practice. I want it; I welcome it. That's how we're going to get better.
coming intention top welcome whoever
I don't care. I want it. I welcome it. Whoever comes out on top is going to be the better for it. And I have all the intention that I'm going to be coming out on top of everything.
rock worse
It was rock bottom. It couldn't get any worse than that.
bad biggest coming last playoff point relief stretch though three year
It was a relief to get that one point and clinch a playoff spot. Even though this last stretch was a bad one, the biggest stretch of the year is coming up in three weeks.
