chance good job people ran scoring shots
We did a good job and had a lot of people involved. I think they only had one scoring chance when we ran into each other on an entry. But other than that we didn't give up any (quality) shots and that's a real positive.
chance draw good pace penalties pushed talked wide
We talked if we pushed the pace and cycled them and go wide on the defense, there was a good chance we would draw penalties and we did.
chance guys hopefully learned lesson puck shoot shows
It shows you to just shoot the puck. And the lesson learned hopefully for a lot of our guys is just shoot the puck and you have a chance to score. If you don't, you're not going to score.
ask chances great number saves scoring seven
We had a number of chances and he made some great saves in traffic. I think we generated six, seven scoring chances. You can't ask for more than that.
chance gave goal stop
It actually gave us a chance to stop the goal from being counted. But it's just one of those things.
advantage chance draw energy good penalties period power pushed talked third
In the third period of back-to-back games, I don't know if they really had the energy to take advantage of the power play. We talked about if we pushed the pace, there's a good chance we'll draw penalties tonight.
casual chances gotten pay puck scoring second taking until
I'm not taking anything away from Columbus, but they didn't really have any scoring chances until the end of the second period. It was a play where we could have gotten the puck and didn't. We were casual and they made us pay for it.
happens point puck season stick
We had the puck on our stick and didn't get it out of the zone. And when something like that happens at this point of the season it's inexcusable.
hung job
We hung in there and got the job done.
expected flat period second signal
We expected that in the first period and I thought we responded. I just didn't think that would signal the flat second period we had. We were awful.
focus handling mistakes people puck
We don't want him handling the puck as much as he does, and yet he does and he makes mistakes like he did. His focus has got to be on the puck and not what other people are doing.
aware chart stand team
We're very aware, we've got a chart up. I try to make everyone on the team aware of where we stand and what we have to do to make the playoffs.
access combat easier efficient performed running ship systems testing timely water
The ship is much easier to access when it's in the water and significant work, like testing the combat systems and running the engines, can be performed in a more efficient and timely fashion.
awful feeling hard hard-work rewarded
It would have been an awful feeling had we not prevailed in overtime. We got rewarded for our hard work.
