feeling game good playing puck single top win
Everyone's playing at the top of their game right now and we feel like we have the puck all the time. We feel like we are going to win every single night. It's a good feeling to have.
best couple face game great level night player playing taken
Let's face it, he's been a great player for a couple of years now in this league, but he's just taken his game to another level this year, where he's dominant. Right now, I think he's the best player in the world. I do. He's playing every night the same way, in traffic, five-on-five, killing penalties; he's doing everything.
finish good greatest playing
We're playing just good enough to lose. We've got some of the greatest goal-scorers, but we've got to finish chances.
against feels games good huge match playing risen scary special teams
It feels good but it's scary if we have to match up with them in the playoffs. These are always huge games for us. Playing against them, our special teams have risen to the occasion.
came cost game guys legs playing tournament underneath worst
I thought that was our worst game of the tournament. We came out flat. Guys didn't have their legs underneath them, and it cost us early. The whole tournament we were playing from behind.
great kid playing shot success
He's playing great. The kid is doing everything really simple. (He) has a great shot and a lot of speed. That's what it is going to take to have great success in this new league.
behind early game normally playing start time
We got behind early in every game we lost. Every time we were playing catch-up and when you do that you start pressing. You start doing things you don't normally do and that's when things go wrong.
easy feels fun playing team
It's been a lot of fun, obviously, playing on this team and with this organization. Everything feels so easy right now, everything is rolling.
games playing
The games keep getting more important as we keep playing them.
season stanley successful winning
The only thing that was going to make this a successful season was winning the Stanley Cup. We didn't live up to our expectations.
club until
We do have another level, I think. I don't think we've showed it in a long time. We have to be a much better club from here on until the end of the year.
chances couple dominant fairly force minutes momentum opens period second seemed turn
You force them to take more chances and that opens up more ice. I thought for about 15 minutes in that second period we were fairly dominant and then a couple turnovers and that seemed to turn the momentum their way.
best great periods played sat
We went out and played a great first two periods, probably the best two periods of the whole series, and then we sat back on our heels, which is a no-no. It's very disappointing and shocking.
against difficult guard puck
We've got two units that can put the puck in the net, so that makes it really difficult to guard against us.
