focus settling time winning
Our focus is on winning that game. We have no time for that. It's all about winning our games, not about settling any scores.
cares club consistent deserves excellent great individual offensive player speed strong success winning
He has been our most consistent two-way player all year, and I can use him in any situation. He's an excellent offensive player with great speed and he is unbelievably strong on the puck. He cares about the team's success and winning more than individual stats. He's an important part of our club and he deserves the recognition he is getting.
cost goal hurts plays power score winning
Power plays cost us the game. If you don't score it's one thing. But if you give up the winning goal on your power play, that's where it hurts the most.
bigger fair losing mistake mistakes putting riding seems winning
I think that's a fair assessment. When you're on a winning streak, it seems you can't do anything wrong, and even when you do something wrong, it seems that it's overshadowed by something bigger or better. When you're riding a losing streak, it seems you're always just one mistake from putting yourself back in that big hole.
dominant factor front great moved puck
He was the dominant factor in this game, no doubt. The one thing we could have done was get in front of him better. But we moved the puck well, made some great decisions. But we couldn't finish.
ahead credit deserves good happened lots man means obviously process
I think it means a lot for Dany and it means a lot obviously for us because we all know what happened and the process that Dany had to go through. I think that this young man deserves lots of credit for not only doing it in a very good way, but also getting ahead of schedule.
obviously
There's going to be a lot of 5-on-4s and 5-on-3s because obviously the referees want to make a statement. It makes for some interesting hockey.
barely happy stand
I'm so happy I can barely stand myself.
carried final game power shot
It was a game where we carried the play and they carried the play for a while. It was a big game and unfortunately, they got the final shot (on power play) and we didn't. It's just sad.
bunch deserve obviously past people resilient situation tough turn
In the past years, this organization has been slapped more than we deserve it seems. But I think we're a pretty resilient organization. We showed people before that we can turn around and go through tough times as a bunch of pros. This is obviously another situation where we will have to adjust.
andy couple dirty fights finish honest looks occurred player players seconds since tried worse
Andy Sutton is not a dirty player by any means. I think he's a very honest player and he just tried to finish his check. It's unfortunate and you never like to see players get injured. But it was one of those things. I think since it occurred just a couple of seconds after all those fights it looks way worse than what it is.
chances couple decisions face felt game good key moments positive power saw situations step tough
I think it's a very positive first step. He had some real good chances on the power play. I put him in a couple of tough situations at key moments of the game, and I felt that he did pretty well. But let's face it, this is step one. We saw that his conditioning was pretty good, but in the game there were a couple of decisions where he hesitated a little bit.
couple sharp
Garnett wasn't as sharp on a couple of goals, but he is a young goalie.
effort focus lost period second
I thought the effort was good. I think we lost our focus in the second period when we could of put the Flyers away.
