games room
All these games are kind of a finals. There is no room for errors.
dug fans guys hung
The guys hung in for 60 minutes, battled hard, dug deep. It was a big win. I think it showed us a lot. And I think it showed the fans a lot.
although canada guys hard love schedule talk
I think guys talk about that, let's make it one or the other. Every two years I think it's hard to get the guys together, especially with the way the NHL schedule is. Although personally, I love the old Canada Cup.
hope sure
I sure hope they won?t let something like that happen.
classy definitely fun juice move
It was a classy move by them. It was fun being back. I was excited, boy. I definitely had a lot of juice in me.
asked bed bring change color colors paint sure wants whatever
The first thing he (Callan) asked was, 'Can I bring my Zamboni bed?' I said, 'Sure, you can bring the Zamboni bed, and you can paint it whatever color you want.' He said he wasn't sure he wanted to change its colors yet. The other one just wants a cat. We're not getting a cat.
approach given night ready respect
I think it's like the NHL now. Any given night, if you're not ready or you're not focused, anything can happen. So that's the approach you have to take ... respect your opponent.
game played playoff
They (the Wings) played a playoff game tonight. They were gritty.
feels good
It?s good for you. It feels good. Once in a while.
anyone behind closer good score sure
It was closer than the score indicated and we just wanted to make sure that we didn't let anyone behind us, and we did a good job, especially in the first.
front lucky somebody whacked
Somebody was in front and made the defenseman concentrate on someone else, ... I just whacked at it and it went in. I was a little lucky there.
bring chance character night win
They (Calgary) come out every night and bring it. If we come with that character every night we will have a chance to win every night.
confidence needed practice road trip week win
We needed to get a win and get some confidence. We had a long week of practice going over some things. We did a lot of little things better than we did on the road trip and it really helped.
safe
Yeah, you don?t want to do that. You want to play safe and get it out. But those things happen.
