anybody next sit step
The next step ... is you sit them in the crowd, if you have that luxury. I'd do it with anybody if I thought it was the right thing to do.
great news player present
It's great news that Ricky's in the fold. He is a very important player for our franchise's present and future.
brain brains dead seconds
We kind of went brain dead for 10 seconds in a 2-2 game.
missed net
We missed the net a lot. A lot more than I'd like to admit.
continue felt hardly night regular six took
This was the first night I felt really comfortable as a coach. We only took six penalties, and hardly any were bad. If we can continue to do this on a regular basis, we'll be better for it.
actively involved ordered pay singled unfairly woman
This is a woman who was actively involved in the theft, and actively involved in the registration of the car. She was only ordered to pay one-third of the money, so she has not been singled out unfairly by the courts.
bumps communication road
There weren't too many bumps in the road down low. There was better communication.
best excuse goes injuries means opportunity played players team
It's a loss, no doubt. Shawn had been one of our best players of late. But every team goes through injuries and it won't be an excuse for us. Shawn played a lot, so this means opportunity for other players.
early meltdown mental next playing ricky third three
It was still early in the game, and Ricky has to have that third goal. We started off playing great, and then they got that first goal, and then we had a mental meltdown for the next three minutes. We have to be stronger, not physically, but mentally.
attitude effort future job lose morning question spoke stays
I spoke with Bruno this morning and I'll tell you what I told him. He didn't lose the job. He did everything he could. If his attitude stays the same it always is with him -- upbeat, you never question his effort -- he'll be fine. Bruno has a future with us.
early report saw surprised
The way he went down didn't look good, but we'll know (Saturday). The early report was that it wasn't too bad, but I haven't got a report as of yet. I saw he was pretty sore, so I wasn't surprised he couldn't come back.
anybody brain coverage grunt people takes willing
Defensive-zone coverage is not brain surgery. Anybody can do it, if you have a will. It takes very little talent. At times, there's not enough people willing to do the grunt work.
We should've won. It was right there for us.
good period played points seemed skate
We'll take the two points any way we can. We played a good 45 minutes. It seemed in the first period we couldn't or wouldn't skate with them.
