marty obviously win
It was working pretty well with Marty and Stumpy. But obviously when you don't win some games, there are going to be some changes.
bit bitter few hockey lose next player taste win
Probably it's going to taste a little bit bitter in the next few days. You win the bronze, you win the gold, you lose the silver. As a hockey player you always want to win. It's disappointment right now.

Sometimes against some teams you get wins no matter how you play.
bounce next ourselves sorry win
We can't feel sorry about ourselves and take back what we did. We've just got to bounce back and win the next game.
looked lose penalty puck special teams time tried win
We got a penalty every time we tried to take a puck off them. In the new NHL, special teams will win or lose you games. For a while it looked the other way around for us, but we bounced back.
building definitely fan feeling games ninth win
We've been building a fan base, so we definitely want to win games and at least be in that ninth place. That's still a possibility. The fans, and us as players, and the organization will have a better feeling going to the long summer.
guys older react team winning younger
Every winning team has experienced guys, and that's what we have now, ... It'll be interesting to see how the younger guys react with these older guys around.
games good win worry
It's good to get the two points. We can't worry about other teams. There's 14 games left, and if we win all 14, who knows? Is it going to be enough? It's not up to us.

This will probably taste a little better in a few days but you win the bronze and the gold medals, you lose the silver.

We're fighting for our lives. The last two or three weeks we've been able to win some games. Every point is huge for us.

We showed a lot of character tonight. It was a big win for our team.
finding game last lately points win
We'd like to have those two points now, but we won't look back. We've been finding a way to win lately and we've got another must-win game tonight. It's been the same story for the last two weeks.
again came crossed goal good guys leave looking mind registered signings single stanley summer teammates win won
A lot of things came into play and I was looking at the big picture. The teammates I have here were a big part of it. Without my teammates, I would not have scored a single goal or registered a point. We made some really good signings in the summer and with the young guys we will keep improving. If you look at your lineup, there are guys that have won and again can win a Stanley Cup. It never crossed my mind to leave this team.
definitely games ninth teammates win
You don't want to let your teammates down. These are big games for our franchise. We definitely want to win games and at least be in that ninth place.
