allowed careful good hit ruts sign
That's always a good sign when you're allowed out on the ice. I've just got to be careful to not hit any ruts (in the ice) and not do anything fancy. Just working that way, slowly, should get me back faster.
definitely direction room ship turn
There's definitely some room (to improve). We wanted to turn the ship around and get it in the right direction, but that's a long process.
confidence draw home remember road win
I remember my first road win was pretty big and I got a lot of confidence from that. I think you draw a lot of what you do at home from when you're on the road.
confidence far game looking night rest team win
The way we're feeling, the confidence that we have in each other, we know we can win every night and every game. The rest of the season, it's win each game. We're not looking to look too far ahead. Now it's just one game at a time, one team at a time.
dominated graduated hockey national
He just dominated in his position, and you could see that as he graduated to the National Hockey League.
bottom brothers came five great guided guys leadership leading program proud seniors taken team testament
It's been a testament to how great our seniors have been and how their leadership has really guided everybody. From when I came in here, they were only sophomores and they were always the guys that were even leading the team then. They've really taken this program from the bottom to the top. You can't really say enough about those five guys. I'm really proud of them and they'll be my brothers for life.
approach best compromise convince hopefully might quite strategy talk taught
But he taught that back in the day. We talk about things. If things aren't working out quite the way we want it to, then we talk. It might take some yelling, but you convince each other that this way is best or you compromise and hopefully come up with the best strategy as to how you're going to approach that save.
goal happened score wrapped
They score their first goal when we're still wrapped up with what happened with Mac.
shut
We shut them down as a team, I don't think it was any one person that did anything that special.
guys spent
We've got a lot of hard-working guys. We've got guys who have, for the first time, spent their winters working hard.
anybody mission stopped
We were on a mission to get there, and I don't think anybody would have stopped us tonight.
downtown giving high morning people supporting walking watching
We were walking downtown this morning and people were giving us high fives on the street. A lot of people are watching us and supporting us.
apply feels learned lessons lose past point taught
We didn't apply those lessons that we should have learned in the past. It's just another point to look at to say this is how it feels to lose and if you don't apply the things you're taught and the things you learn before the game, you're not going to play how you want to.
attitude everybody hope prove rest team
We want to prove that we're not the team that we just showed. I hope that's with everybody on our team. If we use that attitude the rest of the season, I think we'll have success.
