coaching deal doubt dressing handle media room staff totally understand
It's not something that in this dressing room is on our mind. I totally understand the media making a big deal out of this, but the coaching staff is going to handle this the right way, I have no doubt about that at all.
biggest felt game
The biggest thing we had in this game was the passion. From the beginning, we wanted this game, and the Czechs felt that.
laid
(St. Louis) just laid down. (But) I shouldn't have done it.
against respect won
They've won it. We can play well against them, but, at the same time, we do respect them.
It's just one of those games, couldn't do anything right.
best difference good hard job neutral overall puck smart
It's a big difference in the standings between us and them. They are working really hard and I thought for the most part we did a good job. You try your best and they do everything to clog it up in the neutral zone. Overall though, I thought we did a pretty good job being smart and getting the puck by them and making them take some penalties.
good lost louis position seemed
It was something I shouldn't have done but it was just that I had such good position on St. Louis and there was no way I clutched him. It was frustrating because we were getting a lot of penalties, it seemed like, and I just lost it.
good great hopefully run stanley together
It's one of those things where we look at it as a great opportunity. We know we have a very good team. Hopefully we can put it all together and make a run at the Stanley Cup.
best easy guy league players replace
It's not easy to replace Hossa. But, if there's one guy to do it, Heatley's one of the best young players in the league and he's a guy to do it.
cup dream experience great nice since stanley winning won
It was a great experience and it was the first big thing I'd won since juniors. But I dream of winning the Stanley Cup in Ottawa. And that's what I was thinking. It was nice to win at home, but it wasn't the one I want.
It was pretty cool. It was nothing really, just a little jarring.
coming days feeling knocked painful start wind
It was painful and it knocked the wind out of me. It wasn't any fun, but it's feeling better now and, hopefully, in the coming days it will get better and I can start working out again.
good
It was good to get the first one right away.
came strong
They came out strong in the third. It should have been the other way around.
