Other teams are enjoying more power plays than we are, ... I don't understand how they can call the number of power plays called against us for simple infractions. It's beyond my belief we're as bad as taking ... was it nine?
Robby said that he felt that he didn't even touch it. He thought it was there and it went off their player. That's why he was confident, when he came to the bench, that they were going to allow the goal.
Our players worked extremely hard. It was a fast-paced game, and it wasn't no-hit hockey. It was a physical game and those are tough ones to play.
Our relationship goes back a long way. Our kids played minor hockey together in Winnipeg. There are roots there.
He had been scoring a lot in practice and we talked to him about it three weeks ago. He delivered.
He has a workmanlike attitude as every member of their hockey club does. You have to credit them with their work ethic.
He was pushed back in the crease four or five times.
He was going along at a fairly good pace and making great strides. Then he suffered the concussion and really struggled after that.
He was a force out there at all times. He's a dominant young player. He's the real deal.
He did everything he had to do to dominate the game. He was a force out there. I think at times we stood around and were in awe of him.
He is not in a danger situation at all. No concussion, more along the lines of an upper-body bruise.
He had a large hand in our ability to win. Some nights he's required to make more stops. This was one of those nights.
He fits into the same category as the rest of our hockey club. We weren't good enough, and he was part of it. He wasn't as sharp as he needs to be, and the team wasn't as sharp as it needs to be.
He fit into the group. We weren't good enough.
