against chance earned effort florida gave ourselves period pleased point teams third top
We earned a point and gave ourselves a chance for two, and that's all I can ask. Florida is one of the top teams in the league, and if we can play as well as we did against them we should be able to play as well against most teams. I was really pleased with our effort in the third period and in overtime.
fancy game generate left period plenty puck third time tough tried
That was a tough goal, but it was still a 3-2 game with a whole period left to play so we had plenty of time to come back. We just didn't generate much in the third period. We tried to be fancy too much, and didn't get the puck to the net.
consistency days develop energy game games guys hard lives playing point push seemed sure third three worked
It was our third game in three days and I wasn't sure if we'd have our legs, but the guys worked hard and seemed to have more energy than in the other games this weekend. We're playing for our lives right now, and every point counts. We're going to have to develop a little more consistency if we're going to make a real push (for the playoffs).
ask chance chris hit post third three
All we ask of Chris is to give us a chance to win, and he did that tonight. We just couldn't get that third goal, and we hit the post three times.
few good power start
We got off to a good start and we had a few penalties. Wheeling capitalized on a few power plays.
controlled game minutes tough
We controlled the game for two periods. But if you don't play for 60 minutes it's tough to win.
came lead sitting starting
We came out flying, but after we got the lead we starting sitting back and let them get back in it.
doubt positive special tonight trouble
No doubt we've been having trouble on the special teams, but tonight we did some positive things.
best bounce effects gone hard last losing team tough trying turn
We've gone through some tough stretches the last two months, and losing as much as we have effects a team mentally. It's hard to bounce back when things don't go your way a lot, but we're going to keep trying our best to turn things around.
attitude continue game instinct killer rest
We need to continue (to have) that attitude and killer instinct into every game the rest of the year.
appreciate good guys hockey rub seem team
Wheeling is a good hockey team but they seem to rub it in. I don't think our guys appreciate it.
caliber decided direction move opportunity pick ready saw time
He was ready to play, but we decided to move in a different direction. We saw it as an opportunity to get a defenseman of the same caliber and at the same time pick up a young forward.
easy edge plays
He makes the easy plays and (has) an edge to him.
penalty
I don't look at that. If it's an undisciplined penalty it's a problem. But for the most part it hasn't been.
