dangerous happened joe picked plays power since time
That is the first time its ever happened for this franchise. Since we picked up Joe (Thornton), we've had one of the most dangerous power plays in the league.
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.
bad game halfway happens points seem team turning
We've had now for us kind of turning points where we could have put the other team down two halfway through the game and we just missed. At some point something bad happens and we don't really seem to respond.
address happened move tonight
We just keep on battling. What happened tonight shouldn't. We'll address it and move forward.
either goals happen open seen stepped stop
I didn't like either one of those goals. I've seen this happen before, the floodgates open so I stepped in to try and stop it.
buy couple few happen hard looking lose next suddenly teams
It's hard to know what's going to happen in the next few days, because there are so many teams still in contention. But some teams could lose a couple of games, and suddenly they're not looking to buy anymore.
address camp confront figure full fun happened head issues microscope move patience sand stick time training winning wrong year
You have to confront the things that happened the year before. To stick your head in the sand is the wrong approach. We need to figure out what went wrong and why it went wrong, then address those issues and move on. It's been fun for me to have a full training camp and to have some time and patience in the preseason without being under the microscope of winning and losing.
almost happen kick needed third
We needed a kick in the pants. When you?re going like that, almost a third of the way into the season, something has to happen, and it has to happen quick.
goals happen hoping picked since trade
We're 3-0 and scored 15 goals since we picked up Thornton. It's kind of nice, the things you were hoping would happen with the trade have.
bobby excited fastest gets god good happen hits leading possibly pound pounds rink shots team tempo wide
He's going to be a stud. You can just see it. He's excited to be at the rink every day. He does everything at the fastest tempo that he possibly can and God does he pound the puck. He's leading our team in shots in the preseason by a wide margin. It isn't like he's Bobby Orr leading the attack, he gets it at the point, he pounds it and he hits the net. Good things happen when you are doing that.
bounce handed happens points puck stick stuff
We handed two points away. That's a shame. We had the puck on our stick and didn't get the puck out of our zone. When stuff like that happens at this point of the season, it's inexcusable. But we'll bounce back.
caught happens power stick three
The guy's stick is caught in a guy's sweater, it's not hooking. I think he thought Hannan was right-handed. And then you see what happens after that, we get three power plays, but you can't make up a goal.
dedicated good happy hard nice worked
I'm really happy for him. He's worked really hard for this. It's nice to see a good person, who is dedicated to the game, on and off the ice, get rewarded.
caused cheat maybe neutral rarely talked
It's something we actually talked about with the linesman. They cheat on every face-off, and they killed us the other night. I don't know, maybe having said that caused them (the referees to make the call). But it is a penalty. You rarely ever see that one called in the neutral zone.
