came dressing game gave heels penalties promptly room
We didn't play our game in the first period. We got a lot of penalties that put us on our heels early. We went into the dressing room and I thought we regrouped, but we came out and promptly gave up two more.
among chart depth eighth
We'd like to get him acclimated with our team. Right now, you'd probably put him eighth on our depth chart among defensemen. That's an important position.
decision gave goal late period poor power third
We made a poor decision on our power play late in the third period and gave away a short-handed goal and couldn't get it done in overtime.
below guys par played whatever
We sensed during this morning's skate-around that there wasn't much energy. Whatever it was, I thought there were a lot of guys that played below par tonight.

There are things to build on, even though we're down 2-0.
bit changes craig few guy knack obviously personnel teams thinks
When I was in the IHL there were a few teams that used to do that. Some goaltenders just have a knack for breakaways and it can give your team a little bit of a boost. You have to know your personnel before you can make those changes and obviously Craig thinks Morrison is the guy on breakaways.

We're going to dress the best team we can. And if one of those young guys is in that mix, that's the way it's going to be.

We're going to need all seven of those guys. To put numbers on them, that would be wrong right now.

We're going against a team where the whole game plan going in was to take advantage of our turnovers and soft mental play. We were pushing to take that mental play out of the equation, but there were too many times it came into it.
believe competition division focus good grasp happy lock players playing recognize seven teams
We have a real focus on these seven division games. Hopefully, we have a good grasp on being able to lock up the division. Believe me, I'm happy we're playing teams like this. Our players recognize competition, and this is good competition for us.
factor fatigue knew needed team
We needed for him to be good. We knew that fatigue was going to be a factor on our team and we needed him to give us a chance.
talk trust ultimate work
We work on things, we talk about things. But in the end, that's the ultimate one-on-one, and you have to trust the player.
