I've probably played better games this season and come out with no points. Don't get me wrong, I played a good game, but the puck followed me wherever I went. I wish I could say that I said before the game that I would score four goals, but that kind of stuff just doesn't happen.
I've been back and forth, traveling a lot, nothing too exciting. I played too much golf, I'm sick of that. . . . I missed playing hockey.
We played good for a long stretch. We have to get back to the things we were doing. If we can do that, we can get back to winning some games again.
When you played New Jersey before, it's been really tough to forecheck them because Martin is out there playing the puck every time you dump it in. Hopefully (now) you can put a little more pressure on them.
Today we played our best game so far, and if we can play like this, we'll have a good chance on Sunday.
It sucks any time you lose points at this part of the season, it's devastating. We still think we have a chance to make it and we should be proud of the way we have played the past two weeks.
We're doing the small things well and we're getting better every time out. I thought we played two good games this weekend and came away with three points.
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).
He is probably the most talented player I've ever played with.
I haven't played a league game in a long, long time but it felt better than I thought it would, ... You just want to win the hockey game when you're coming back.
We were ready to play, there's no doubt about that. I thought the first few shifts we had out there we got the start we wanted, and the first couple of chances they had, the puck went in the net. Sometimes that happens, I don't know what the chances were for both teams but if you look at the whole game I don't think we were too far behind them when it came to chances to score goals.
It would be nice for the last game of the season at least to have our full lineup.
There's so much at stake for us. We have to make sure to help out and keep the puck out of our net. We've done that a lot better the last three games.
