caught fired following game gets happened justified knowing middle nice stanley success took tough won
I think he got caught in a tough situation. He won us a Stanley Cup, took us to a Game 7 and gets fired the middle of the following year. It wasn't really justified that he got fired, but it happened and knowing we've had that kind of success with him, it's nice having him back.
beat bit call few knowing letting net puck touches
I don't think you can call that a move. It's going to the net and letting the puck go. I don't think he touches the puck the whole way. I think it psyches the goalie out a little bit not knowing what he's going to do and not doing anything. He beat me with it a few times. It must work.
best captain cup front game great knowing safety stanley three
To me, he was always a safety valve, knowing that I had one of the best competitors in the game in front of me. To be the captain of three Stanley Cup teams, you don't do that by chance. It's because you've done something great in your career.
boss brings everybody frame knowing puts ready shift wandering
It's the accountability he brings to the table. Knowing that the boss is there, when you're getting off a shift or getting ready for a shift, puts everybody in the right frame of mind. Not everybody is wandering off.
face finish knowing odds ottawa pick rangers regardless teams three top
We're going to face one of the top three teams, each first in their division, regardless of where you're at. The odds are if we finish sixth, the Rangers will be our first opponent, so that would be pretty exciting. Knowing what the other teams are, Ottawa and Carolina, I don't think there's one you want to pick over the other.
against game step took trying winning
We are trying to get better every game. We took a step by winning an important game against a big rival.
excited flow good guys rules shut
The rules are there and there is a lot more flow to the game. If we are able to play this way and not take a lot of penalties, you'll see this more and more from our team. It's not just me. All the guys are excited that we are able to shut down good teams.
fortunate help played saves time win
I've played enough in the NHL to know most of these guys. Most of the time I know their tendencies. I've been lucky. I've been fortunate to make some saves and help us win some games.
fans good italian knew matter saw time tough
It was tough to get going right away and I think you saw that. It (the Italian goal) was good for the fans and they got excited. But we knew it was just a matter of time before we would score.
dominate games nice
These were big games for us. It's nice to see us dominate them.
against definitely nights team
These nights are going to happen. It's definitely disappointing to do that against a team like that, but that's the way it is.
against beat looking points senators team teams
The Senators are a team we are looking up at in the standings. They beat a lot of teams in our division. Any points we get against them is a plus.
bothered choice given ken
It would have bothered me to see Ken Daneyko's number, or Scott Stevens' given out. But Nieder made his own choice to leave.
early good held performance sat worst
The worst thing for us was probably getting the early lead. We sat back after that, but in the end we held on and got a good performance out of our guys.
