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.
days eight everybody extremely games hockey six
It would be better for everyone. The hockey would be better. Six games in eight days is extremely difficult. But everybody is in the same boat, so you can't use that as an excuse.
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.
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.
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.
against coming good gotten great job team tested
We've gotten tested on a lot of nights, and this was a great test for us. Coming in here on the road, against a team that's been pretty hot, we did a really good job from our goaltending on out.
dressing finish game greatest guys hot lack played room
We've got some of the greatest goal-scorers who have ever played this game in our dressing room and guys that are hot this year. We've got to finish chances. It's not for lack of chances. It's just finishing.

break drop ice laughing neat pretended trick
That was a neat trick he did there, where he pretended he was going to drop his stick. It was all I could do not to break out laughing on the ice there.
certainly exciting games hands instead laid minnesota neutral played puck turning type watch
That was a Minnesota (Wild) type of game, where they laid back in the neutral zone. Those aren't the most exciting games to watch and certainly not the most exciting to play. But we played into their hands at times, turning the puck over, instead of getting it deep.
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.
easily lead sit
We could easily have been up 4-0 or 5-0. But you can't sit on a lead in this league.
couple inches seem seemed
We just didn't seem to be able to get anything settled. We seemed to be a couple of inches off (on passes) all night.
