best matter playing playoff point team worst
Right now, every game's a big game. It doesn't matter who you're playing. When you're in a playoff race, it doesn't matter if you're playing the best team or the worst team. Every point counts.
bench looked net
On the bench it looked like the net moved. But you can't really see from the bench.
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.
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.
confident definitely time week
It's not the time to be too cocky, and it's not the time to think anything is the end of the world. I definitely think they're a lot more confident than they were a week ago.
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.
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).
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.
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.
score
I just think we did little things right. As a result, we were able to score some goals.
anybody attitude bees career fun heavier last player pounds rink says situation stands symbolic team year
He's symbolic of what our team stands for. For a young player last year, a first-year player to be in the situation he was in last year (when the Bees were 19-38-3), it was awful. It wasn't fun to play hockey. It wasn't fun for anybody to go to the rink last year. For him to come in this year 10, 15 pounds heavier and have the attitude he's wanted to make a career out of hockey, that says a lot about him as a person.
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.
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.
bigger gesture good great picture terry
Terry called me, and I thought it was a great gesture on his part. We're rivals, but this is bigger than that. This is good for the league, and I think that's the big picture tonight.
