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.
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.
far guy second three zones
The second guy is so far away it doesn't matter. He's three zones away.
people point regular season
People say the regular season is meaningless, but every point will count.
doubt five games last mind playoff time
There's no doubt in here at all that come playoff time we are going to be fine. We have to put these last four, five games out of our mind and out of our psyche.
good
That's unacceptable, and we have to play better if we want to do any good in the playoffs. If we play like that, we're going to get our butts kicked.
couple critique disrupted happens
You don't critique a win. A couple of times we were a little disrupted in our our own end but that always happens when you're with a new partner.
definitely easy eighth maybe seventh
Maybe if we crept in in the seventh or eighth spot, we'd be celebrating. But we know we can clinch the division. We're definitely not celebrating just getting in. That's easy right now.
surprised
I was surprised I had that much time.
penalties took
Obviously, we took way too many penalties tonight.
good held skilled team test tonight
Tonight was a good test for us. They're a great, offensively skilled team and we held them for most of the game.
finally great half paid period periods played second work
This was huge. We didn't quit. We didn't sulk. We played great in the second half of the first period, and the second period was great. In the third, the work of the first two periods finally paid off.
definitely easier execute game guys plan practicing purpose seems shooting systems year
This year we're definitely practicing a lot more. We see drills that we're doing for a purpose, not just shooting and passing. (In the past), the guys didn't know what the systems were or what was going on. Now it seems like we're focused. It makes it easier for us on the ice, to have a game plan and to try and go out and execute it.
buried chances hit late puck three wide
We had 15 or 20 chances. The puck bounced, went wide of the net, hit the net. They had three chances late and buried them all.
