games number played tonight
We just have to find a way to win, that's the only thing that's been missing. We've played a number of games like tonight but we haven't had any breaks. Tonight, if we get a bounce, it's 2-0.
best decision doctors good gut rest
He was able to gut it out for the rest of the period, and we got a good look at it after. The doctors made the decision that it wasn't the best thing for him to play at that point.
next short
We're going to have to be better tomorrow, or this is going to be a very short series, and we're not going to be the ones going to the next round.
defend ended great job knew leads score time
We knew they were going to come at us hard, and you have to be able to defend leads at this time of the season. We didn't do that, but Kirby did a great job to score what ended up being the game-winning goal.
coming fact harder home sure
The fact that they are at home is going to give them some momentum. And I am sure they are going to be coming at us even harder than they did in Houston.
great pass smith stretch talked watch
The stretch pass from Smith was a great play. We talked about it before the game, that we had to watch for that.
anticipate exceeded year
He's exceeded everyone's expectations. You can't anticipate the year he's had as a first-year pro. He's been terrific.
coach
I'm a coach, and I wanted to coach at the professional level.
competing easy game results
It's not about who were playing. It's up to us. We haven't had an easy game all year. We're competing on a nightly basis. We now have to get the results for that competition.
ability blame game great responsibility took
In a game like this you don't want to take any undisciplined penalties. He took responsibility, he didn't blame the referee. After that, his ability took over on what was just a great play.
good puck rush supposed
Stokes made a very good play and jumped into the rush like you're supposed to do there. He got the puck and put it where he had to put it.
huge led mistake period second third
(That goal) was huge for us because of the circumstances in the game. It's better to get that third because we make a mistake in the third period that led to their second score.
came fresh game hard omaha
It's important not to get frustrated, and I really don't think we came into this game that way. We just wanted to get a fresh start, but Omaha comes at you hard here.
positive watching win
A win is a win. We're not exited about watching it, but we got the two points. Now we need to take the positive as much as we can as we go to Milwaukee.
