brad cup experience forget great known playing since stanley winning
I've been through a lot with them, winning the Stanley Cup and playing in the World Cup together. I've known Brad since I was 14 so to be part of this with him, it's going to be a great experience and we'll never forget it.
chances five game good none
Things were going in, that's the way it went tonight, and we need to keep it going because it's a long season. It's really frustrating after a game and you've had five good chances and none of them are goals, but things went in tonight.
cool excited game last people raise though wants year
Everyone wants to go see that Oct. 5 game (against Carolina) to raise the banner. It's pretty cool to see how (excited) the city's been, even though we had a year off last year, people are just as excited or even more.
both game good great hard hockey played teams
We really played 60 minutes, and we played hard for 60. They played a great game. They had some great chances, great opportunities. It was a good hockey game for both sides. Both teams were working really hard.
believe games goals good players step sudden
We have a lot of good players on the team, and we do have to step it up. I think we can. We believe in each other. We're confident. We know that just because we had two games with no goals (it's not) that all of a sudden we can't score.
best win
We got the win and that's the most important thing. It wasn't our best game.
bit definitely good happy minute period played tempo third tied toronto won
Toronto played very well, but we definitely wanted to outwork them and I think we did. I think from the first minute to the last, our tempo went up a little bit and the third period was a good period for us and we capitalized, tied it up and won in shootout, so we're all pretty happy about it.
heads
We can't put our heads down after this one,
dvd final game gets minute puck remind seems start watch yelling
It still seems unbelievable to me. I'll watch the DVD of Game 7 and it gets in the final minute and I start yelling at the screen: 'What are you doing? Get the puck out!' And then I have to remind myself, 'Wait, it's OK, we win.'
behind hit trying
It started with Philly, trying to hit their 'D' and play behind their 'D,' ... It's been working and I am going to keep working at it.
build exciting fan good knew month people watch
It was pretty exciting. The month of August, every day there was something new. We knew it was going to be like that because there were 300-something people not signed. ... It makes it exciting for the people. And the more exciting it is, the more they'll come to the game, the more they'll watch it on TV. That's how you build a fan base. I thought it was good for the game.
played win
It's kind of the same thing when we played Calgary. It's a win at a time. We're pretty confident.
boost confidence good net
It's good to boost your confidence a little bit. The net was getting really small. But the most important thing, we got that win.
