help playing waiting
When we're playing that team, we have to play a patient, waiting game. We didn't give Weekes much help at all.
harder legs might parade stupid
We did some stupid things we need to fix; it was a parade to the box. Especially back-to-back nights, we had no legs at the end. Because we're young, the refs might be harder on us.
far guy second three zones
The second guy is so far away it doesn't matter. He's three zones away.
cheering expect guy handling keeps loose team tough ultimate
He's the ultimate team guy. When he's not playing, he's the first guy cheering for us on the bench. What you kind of expect to do something and you don't get to do it, it's tough for you. He's been handling it great. He's a loose guy and he keeps you loose.
bit eight five four gives last nine time
Any time you get any regulars back, it kind of gives you that little bit of a boost. It's been different with four or five regulars out of the lineup the last eight or nine games.
christmas good hard matter night playing points
I'm out there playing hard for them every night no matter what. It's good to get two points before Christmas.
best close damage fix four guess hockey last line played three
I guess we're kind of teetering on that line right now. Obviously, we haven't played close to our best hockey in the last three or four games. And if we want to do some damage in the playoffs, we're going to have to fix that soon. Real soon.
guess line
I guess we're kind of teetering on that line right now.
against anybody believe chance given ourselves teams written
I think all 29 other teams have written us off and given us no chance at all. We have to believe in ourselves and not back down against anybody like we showed tonight.
against arm close imagine impossible leg played rules stick stop trying
I played against him a lot before the new NHL rules, and he was impossible to stop then. Now you can't put a stick on his arm or his leg or anything. I can't imagine trying to stop him now. He is as close to unstoppable as you can probably get.
everybody page stay together tough
Not so much a spark. But to get everybody back on the same page that they used to be. I think everybody is on a different page. It's a long season. It's tough for everybody to stay together all season.
chance definitely forward good looking plays saying situation summer wait
It's definitely going to be a good summer, something I'm looking forward to and we'll see what happens. I'm not predicting, I'm not saying I want to go there or there. I'm just going to wait for the summer and, for once, it's my chance to let the situation play out before it plays me.
air breath compared few fresh past
It's been kind of a breath of fresh air compared to the way things went the past few years.
banner cool everybody great happen mark night obviously respects seeing
It was awesome. It was just so cool seeing Mark out there and seeing how much everybody respects him. I even got a little teary-eyed seeing the banner go up - and that doesn't usually happen with me. It was so great obviously to be able to play with him but also to be part of his banner night as well.
