both cramp double exhausted five gets periods played point start teams three time tiring
Three periods is tiring enough. We're all pretty exhausted right now. Both teams were really tired, and they got the break. It's the first time in five years I've played double overtime, and it gets to the point where you start to cramp up.
entire
Things just didn't go right for us in this entire series.
bridges came great knows lots performance
Bridges made some great saves. He's a great goalie, everyone knows that. He just came out and had another great performance tonight. We had lots of chances.
goal hard magical net rest
Man, he's just magical sometimes. That first goal was unbelievable, a highlight-reel goal. Then he went to the net hard and potted two more. He's a goal scorer. He's going to do that for the rest of his career.
buddies cool exciting family friday fun hear hot hype neat saturday sort ticket together watch
It's pretty neat being able to have my family come over for the Friday and Saturday games. I hear it will also be on TV, so it's cool that some of my buddies will be able to get together and watch it. It's sort of the hot ticket (in Vancouver) and all the hype makes it fun and exciting to play.
couple days energy home next practice regroup
It's unbelievably frustrating right now. We had some chances, but we're going to have to regroup for the next couple of days and practice some things. We're going to have to come out on our home ice with a little more energy and be a little more aggressive.
cool fun moving points power puck scoring tight
It was no big deal, just another point. But it was cool scoring that many points and much more fun than a tight game. Our power play is really moving the puck well, and there's no selfishness.
fifth learned talk whenever year
I've learned a lot from him. Whenever he's home, we talk about it. This is my fifth year in the league, so I already know a lot of the referees in the league.
doctors doubted heal scary worked
It was pretty scary at first I doubted I'd be back but the doctors told me right away that it would heal up if I worked at it.
It's just one of those things. I don't know what to say.
fantastic focused hockey home playing wait
It's killing us having to wait so much because that was a very disappointing game. It was a combination of them playing some fantastic hockey and us not playing our best. You never like to lose, but it's made us more focused for the home opener.
flick seems switch team tenacious
It seems with this team you flick a switch and go from really tenacious to lackadaisical. We just need to put the switch back to tenacious.
captain change ethic example game guys help hope ice leads team work
It won't change the way I'm going to play. Captain or not, I hope the work ethic I try to take on the ice every game will be an example the young guys can follow. I try to be a guy who leads by example and by doing all the little things right to help the team win.
great net ready seemed threw
It's an 11 right now. It seemed like everything we threw at the net bounced away and everything they threw at it went in. They're a great team. We'll just have to get ready for Thursday. Anything is possible.
