execution face game good hard hopefully lose move neutral played players puck slap top turned zone
Hopefully this is a good slap in the face for our players. We turned the puck over in the neutral zone 30 times. When you lose execution its hard to get it back. I'm disappointed in the way our top players played and execution. It's just one game and we have to move on.
face good hopefully level several slap turned urgency
Hopefully this is a real good slap in the face for us. The level of urgency has to be turned up several octaves now.
confidence guys hopefully hot
Goal-scorers are guys who can get hot when they get confidence and can go on a run. Not much has been going in. Hopefully this will get him going.
exhibition mind penalty shot
He scored on a penalty shot and I think he was 3-for-3 or 4-for-4 in the exhibition season. I think he's 14-for-14. That's mind boggling.
bonding either greatest helps maximum mix performance process strengths wins
One of the greatest strengths we have is we are a team. That doesn't get you wins either but it helps the process of bonding together. You mix that with maximum performance and a lot of effort, and you can be dangerous.
energetic game good nice push rewarded
They play a very energetic style, and they do a lot of good things that push the game along. But it would be nice to see them get rewarded every now and then.
cares credit good number numbers wins
He's had a very good year. The number he cares most about is wins. The other numbers are inconsequential. That's a credit to him; 38 wins is a lot of wins.
embraced hard played role scenario trying
He embraced the role and embraced his teammates, and his teammates, in the end, embraced him and played hard for him. That's the scenario we're trying to have.
indication issue received
It was never an issue for me. I have never received any indication that anything had changed.
happens last minutes win
You've got 60 minutes to win the game. It just happens we've used the last 20 a lot of times.
gone kept looked minutes ready
He looked fine, ready to go. He could have gone more, but we kept his minutes down.
camp determined ethic games good sure training wants work
He's been real good in training camp and the preseason games. He's got a real determined work ethic right now and I think part of that is because of the injury. He wants to make sure that he's all the way back.
beaten cut defense ended giving goals hands kept night penalties played six took worst
This is the worst our defense has played all season, hands down. Giving up six goals a night just isn't going to cut it. We just kept on getting beaten and making mistakes, then the penalties we took ended up in our net.
answered good guys marty
Our big guys answered the bell, Marty included, and that's a good sign.
