anyway consistent focused himself pressure puts reasons rick
I think Rick puts a lot of pressure on himself anyway and I think that's one of the reasons he hasn't been as consistent as he'd like. It's something that he's focused on lately.

You need to do whatever you can do to make sure that puck doesn't go in the net.
accomplish believe certainly order running start suddenly tall thinking year
It's a tall order when you've hovered around .500 all year to suddenly start thinking about running the table. But if you can't believe you can do it, you're certainly never going to accomplish it.
confidence saw teams ton
I think you saw two teams that, yeah, don't have a ton of confidence right now.
chances gave hard ready success work
I didn't think we were ready to play. We got away from things that gave us success the other night. We gave up chances that they didn't have to work very hard for.

I think we can play better in front of him. No, I know we can play better.
arm goal power scores scoring shot struggling team
The short-handed goal really killed us. We were struggling on the power play and when you're not scoring and the other team scores on (the short-handed play), it is a big shot in the arm for their confidence.

We seemed tentative. It did surprise me. I thought we were ready to go. We didn't compete as hard as we should have.

We have a lot of confidence in Bruno and Jeremy.

We wanted to come out skating. We did, but didn't get rewarded for it. We generated a lot of chances, but just didn't put them in the net.
bad left pairs putting team together trying
Without Zhitnik in there it left a hole. We were kind of putting pairs together and trying to see what worked. It's a bad team to be trying to do that against.
