challenge group point team
Our team as a group was not up to the challenge and that is unacceptable at this point of the season.
ahead basically control intensity matched omaha realized run stays table taken
I think we've realized the intensity that has to be matched or taken into these games. If we run the table and Omaha still stays ahead of us, kudos to them, but basically we control a lot of our own destiny.
battle biggest game lead outcome plays time
I think any time you go into a game the most important person is your goaltender. He's going to lead you into battle - into the game. How he plays has the biggest outcome on the game.
given goals last liked saw three
I saw a lot more that liked than I didn't like tonight. But we've given up three shorthanded goals in our last three games. And that's something that we've got to get better at.
bounce diminish far guys outcome
Our guys battled and I am not going to let this outcome diminish how far we've come in 2005. We'll bounce back in 2006.
couple eat experience good guys learn places
Our guys will learn from this experience and we'll get on it tomorrow. I know a couple good places to eat in Milwaukee, so we can just go back there on Friday.
good hockey played short tonight win
We played short tonight and got a good effort, but we need to win those hockey games.
good great guys position test
I think it's a good test for our team. We're in a race, which is great for our guys because there are expectations. I don't think it's pressure. It's just expectations that if you do enough good things you put yourself in position to make the playoffs.
games houston
(That was one) of the grittiest games we've played. That Houston game was an eye-opener.
When you are young, and we're young, you play to survive.
against came grand loss
We came back from Saturday's loss and we were better against Grand Rapids and grinded out a win.
killers goalies penalties
Your best penalty killer is your goalie.
humble winning hungry
If we remain humble and hungry, we can win.
bury chances
We had chances to bury them early, but didn't.
