good power scoring second skill stay third
The second one I really didn't see the shot. The third one was a good scoring chance. Obviously, we just need to stay out of the box. They have a good power play. They have a lot of skill guys.
easy expecting hard period second until wait
I was expecting much more from them. I was expecting them to come hard at the beginning, but they didn't. I had to wait until the end of the second period to make some big saves. Other than that, it was a pretty easy night.
hits hope second simply time
I was screened out only on the second goal, really. The other ones that were tipped, I simply didn't have time to react....When that happens, after it hits them, you've got to hope it hits you, too.
bit couple game good harder key puck saves
It was a little bit of a harder game because I didn't feel the puck very much. I had a couple good saves at key times.
control easy front saw shots stomach though traffic
Even though they had a lot of traffic in front of the net, I was able to see it. I saw the shots into my stomach so it was easy to control the rebounds.
gives lots perfect points road six three
That was a perfect road trip. We got six points from the three games, and I think it gives us lots of confidence.
bit check mentally missed poke trying
I was trying to poke check him a little bit and I missed the puck. It's mentally pretty hard.
poke
I thought I had him with the poke check. But he got me 5-hole.
counting decision goal happen next san season sign smart
My goal is still to be a No. 1 goalie and I think it's going to happen next season (either in San Jose or elsewhere). I'm really counting on that. And I think I made the smart decision to sign with the Sharks.
faced guy periods shots spent stand time watching
We got 30 shots in the first two periods and I thought the other guy was unbelievable. I only faced about 10 shots so I spent most of the time watching him stand on his head. I was still ready, though.
lucky puck saw
It was a lucky bounce, but other than that, I saw the puck the whole game.
game good guess hard playing win
It was a really good game from the team. It's hard playing back-to-back. I guess if you win you're not as tired.
far knew
We knew this one would be a big swing, and that's why it was so important. It was a four-point game. Now we're not that far back.
bouncing puck
I think the puck was bouncing a little more for them today.
