We should be. It's great to see they did so well. As a group of guys, we want to do the same thing.
was amazing. You don't have a choice but to play your best. They force you do do that because they're smart and that's the fun part for me, I'm being challenged to think faster and be creative.
There's no hiding the fact the last couple of games we weren't there, we weren't even in it.
There's no excuse at all. It's effort. It's moving your feet, it's making hits. You keep it simple, but when you do you create bounces -- you make your own bounces.
There's not going to be a lot of surprises for me if I can ask him beforehand and see how things work. That's the main thing, just being around him and seeing how he goes about things every day.
We're close. We have to make sure we keep plugging. It's just a matter of getting that one more goal.
We're a family. When you lose a guy like that it's like losing people in your family. He was always there. He was the first one to take the blame and held himself responsible. As a player, it's not something you like to see. The coach doesn't put on his skates and go out and play. There's only so much he can do. I have a lot of respect for him.
We have a lot of games left, and we don't want to look too much into it.
We had a lot of new faces, but guys had the right attitude.
That would be unbelievable, but I'm not going to have any expectations going in. I'm not sure how the lines are going to shape up but, if I had the opportunity, it would be a dream.
That was our best opportunity to get the win, but I don't think we let up after. We were still pushing and pressing to get the win and finish the game, but it just didn't happen. We have to make sure that we take advantage of opportunities like that.
That was a nice goal. I don't know why he fell over. But he did a good job of putting it in.
I was pretty shocked. It was tough. I was surprised and wanted to find out what was going on, so I went to the hospital to see him ? I had no idea. He didn't say anything about it and I didn't really notice a lot.
I was better at both ends, defensively and offensively, ... It was more of a well-rounded game. I want to add to that.
