surprised
I think I'm the most surprised out of anyone.
amaze continues easy everybody ice plays smart team
He's just so smart out there. When you're on the ice with him, he makes everything easy for you. He continues to amaze everybody on this team with the plays he makes.
definitely desire follows intensity learn watching
He definitely has that intensity on the ice, a desire to win. When you see that it's contagious, everyone follows him. He's the leader. You learn something every day watching him on the ice.
fun
We had some fun and got away from the rink.
fairly good ourselves shape top
We've put ourselves in fairly good shape now. We're not in the top eight, but we're right there. If we want to do it, we can do it.
complain tested
We tested Turco and he made the big saves. We can't complain about how we played.
continue feels playing playoffs win
Right now every win feels great. Were playing for the playoffs it's right there for us if we continue to play well.
good hockey maybe mentally normally ready second sharp
On a different occasion, maybe when it's not our second night, I think we have a little more jump. We were not as sharp mentally as we normally are. They're a good hockey team, but so are we. I think if we play them in the playoffs, we'll be ready and I think we'll give a better performance.
good job movement puck ryan wound
Ryan did a good job getting it started. I thought we had really good puck movement on that, and it wound up not being a pretty goal, but we'll take it.
balance experience good guys
We have a pretty good balance of new guys and guys who have been here before. You look to the guys with experience to tell you what to expect. It should be good.
break chance few heal injuries minor refreshed
I'd probably like to keep going (with games), but I'm going to use the break to my advantage. A few minor injuries will have the chance to heal up, it's a chance to get refreshed and rejuvenated and to do some off-ice conditioning.
hockey night playoff tight
It's playoff hockey for us. We can't take any night off, it's such a tight race.
chances finding puck seems
I've just been getting chances and the puck just seems to be finding the net.
care evaluate focus
I try not to think about it too much. Usually if you do the other things, the little things, the one-on-one battles, and focus on some of the other things, things take care of themselves. When you're on a streak, you try not to evaluate it too much. You just go play your game.
