bit clean goal good lost playing power scoring winning
I think we have to clean up the little things ... the little things that made us a real good team. That's winning all the loose-puck battles. Killing that big penalty. Scoring the big goal on the power play. We've lost a little bit of that. We're playing well, but not well enough.
case chances goals guys injuries less line messed scoring stick
We're not getting any less scoring chances than when we were scoring 3.5 goals a game. We've had some injuries that have messed up the line combinations, but that is not an excuse. I think now sometimes it's a case of the guys squeezing on the stick a little too tight.
both clear coach coaching darn gnawing gosh issue lost plain playing position scoring talks team win winning
Obviously, the big issue is we're not winning any gosh darn games. It's gnawing at us as a team and a coaching staff. I don't like to be a coach that talks about playing well if we're not winning, but we've got goaltending that put us in position to win both games. The plain clear thing is that we've lost the scoring touch.
capable defend double figures four guys harder honestly prefer putting rather scoring teams three
Honestly I would prefer that not to happen. I would much rather have three or four guys averaging in double figures than to have one or two putting up big points. It just makes it that much harder for teams to defend you when you've get three or four guys that are capable of scoring points.

The expectations are there for them. They've come through a big regular season, but now that's not enough. And that's a whole different animal.
backs battling contest extremely facing group kids knew last locker proud seconds tooth
I was extremely proud of our guys. We knew we were facing elimination, our backs to the wall, and even down to the last 30 seconds of that contest we were battling tooth and nail. I couldn't be more proud of the group of kids in that locker room.
career deciding factor high petroleum salary school seniors study though worst
I tell high school seniors not to let salary be the only factor in deciding to study petroleum engineering. The worst thing you can do is go into a career you don't like even though the salary is good.

I tell these kids as freshmen (that) by the time they get out of here, they're going to need an agent to negotiate their contracts.

battle both character four great lost nobody player special team winning
That was one for the ages. There was a winning team but nobody really lost this game. Both goalies were great. Everyone used every player on the bench. We got great shifts from all four lines. This was a special team effort. This was a battle of guts, will and character out there.

That was one for the ages right there. There was a winner, but there was really no losing team. It was a battle of guts, will and character ? for Union just as much as for us.
