best hockey role seen tried
Every role we've tried him out in, he's excelled. He's just playing, by far, the best hockey I've seen him play.
gave guys handful played
This roller-coaster thing doesn't work. We had only a handful of guys who played to expectations and gave to the team.
bad late maybe might taste tough
Maybe tomorrow, it might feel a little better. But right now, there's a pretty bad taste in the mouth. It is a point, but it's tough when you had two that late in the game.
goal needs
Miro Jr. probably needs a goal today, doesn't he?
aware changes contract couple depth good guys last next ourselves playing trying work
Mentally, the last couple of games, we were all aware of the situation. I don't think it changes a thing. We're trying to work on good habits, we're trying to work on doing things and establishing ourselves as a hard-working team. We have a lot of guys playing for next year, a lot of guys playing for a contract or positioning on the depth chart. We have a lot of guys with a lot to play for. So I don't know if it changes anything for us.
mentally
Mentally and physically, I didn't think we were sharp.
almost brain crazy easy hat playing tip
It was almost too much for my brain to handle. It was a crazy day. I tip my hat to the players. It isn't easy playing in that environment.
almost brain
It was almost too much for my brain to handle.
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.
minutes talk
Sometimes it's better to take 30 minutes out of your day and talk about something other than hockey.
across good point voice
A different voice sometimes is a good way to get the point across a little clearer.
awareness beyond certainly guy plays poise puck
This guy plays beyond his years. He has poise and awareness with the puck that he certainly doesn't look like a first-year player.
against almost body guys high inhibit level man plays puck rules size skill strength takes unit
They use the new rules as well as any unit that you play against in this league. Their skill is so high and their body position, with Jagr, himself, he's a big man and when he has the puck it takes almost a man the same size and strength level to get it off because the rules inhibit the plays you used to be able to use on guys like that.
puck sure whatever
You need to do whatever you can do to make sure that puck doesn't go in the net.
