If that guy is No. 5, I'd like to see the first four.
When I look with both my eyes it's not far from what it was before, ... My left vision isn't as good as my right eye but it's not where it's going to make a difference on the ice.
Our (penalty kill) came through at the end. It looked like Pittsburgh had enough chances to get the game-winner with a few minutes left. It was a tough game. We battled hard. It was a good two points for us.
Overall I didn't think our line had the best game,
I thought we were the better team. We wound up again on the wrong side of the score sheet. It's frustrating.
It is almost must-win for us in this stretch because we're going to need them. We're going to be on the road a lot in January (nine out of 13 games) and play a lot of teams above .500. We'll need this stretch as a foundation to play the teams at the top of the league.
I thought we played as well as we've ever played here.
I thought we played a pretty good hockey game tonight. I thought we were the better team. We were outplaying them halfway through the game, and you look up at the scoreboard and it's 3-0 (for New York).
I thought we beat ourselves. We have a lot to work to do, that's for sure.
I thought we beat ourselves tonight. All five of their goals came when we had the puck and turned it over.
I think we made some progress tonight. If we can keep playing like we did tonight we can turn this thing around.
I think we made some great additions to our roster. Obviously, you like to see the guys that we added healthy. But I like the way our roster looks.
I think we knew with even 25 games to go that it would be dog race to the end. Obviously we have two big games in Montreal, but we have to try and keep winning until the end.
I think that we probably had our best first period. We've had so many ifs and buts in this tournament and we have not had strong starts, so today we focused on trying to get an early lead.
