building confidence felt good great hard might starts time weeks year
We haven't had too many weeks where we felt good and confident. It's been up and down and up and down and up and down all year. This is the time of year where confidence starts building and that's what we want to do. We're still not there yet. It might look great and it is better, but it's a lot of hard work.
eighth happened team worry
We've never been the eighth seed, obviously. It's going to be different. We're not going to worry about what happened two years ago. We're just going to worry about our team now.
atmosphere bit confidence four game games goals great huge next pull score scoring three
When you score two goals one game and one goal the next and you get four points, that's great because we weren't getting (points) when we were scoring three and four. It's huge and this is going to get everybody's confidence going. We need to pull out games like this and then atmosphere is a little bit better in the workplace, you know?

We have to get close to 40 shots again and keeping pounding the puck. Fancy passing plays, those things are not going to get it done. We have to keep driving the net and find a way to score goals.
longer took
When you are in, you are in, it doesn't matter. It took a little while longer than expected, but we are in.
