comeback goals playoffs regulation scoring seen three tie
Even when I played, I've never seen a comeback in the playoffs like that. Scoring three goals at the end of regulation and the one to tie it up, it showed our character.
days emotional game guys hard home needed realize settle shift takes
It was a pretty emotional two days around here. It was the first (playoff) game at home here for some of the guys. We needed a game like that that was hard fought. Now guys can settle in here and see what it takes to win, and realize you have to go here. Every shift of every game is huge.
easy game last shut
It wasn't an easy year. Nothing was easy for this team. You look back from the All-Star Game to the last game of the year, and they could have shut (it) down, but they didn't.
knows less needs nobody
Everyone knows what's at stake. We have to come out and keep playing. Nobody needs to do anything more or anything less than they've been doing.
goal next sights step
It's just the next step for us. This was our goal and we made it. Now we have our sights set on the first round.
games guys pulling results speaks team winning
What they've done speaks for itself. They're a team with 18 guys pulling the same way. The results are pretty evident; they're winning a lot more games than they're losing.
battle behind good lie small step toward
We're still behind the 8-ball. This is a small step toward where we want to go. It was good to see that it's going to be a long series. We're going to battle and we're not going to lie down.
head playoff ready time
We're in a playoff race. There's no time to put your head down and pout. We've got to get ready to get back at it (today).
hockey lines simple three wheel
We're not reinventing the wheel of hockey here. It's just simple things, and we did that here tonight. We do that, we can come at you with three lines and keep going and going.
cut good last lines matter mistakes played players result scores three tonight
They played well, but all three lines did. We cut down our mistakes line after line. Tonight was the result of good teamwork. Last night it was Phillips' line. It doesn't matter what line scores the goals. When you play like that, it's going to be different players every night.
few good practices tells whether
That tells you how good of a goalie he is. It's going to give him some confidence. Whether he just practices for a few days, it's good.
definitely point
I think every point right now is important. We want two, but one is definitely better than nothing. So we'll take it.
held skill
I think they held up pretty well. We had a lot of skating, a lot of skill work. I think they did pretty good.
best healthy moves player
For us, of all the moves made I think we got the best player that's been moved. For us now, we have to get healthy and we have to get going again.
