character good
He's a good character guy. He'd be a good addition.
until
Until it's over, I'm not going to tell you it's over.
fight games left playoff until
You can look through the 30 games left and I don't think any of those games are going to be easy. It's going to be 30 playoff games for us. We're going to fight until the end and see what happens. It's all we can do.
bit game stuck tried weird
It was a little bit of a weird game. They tried to frustrate us but we stuck to the game plan. We battled them and got the result, and that's the most important part right now.
chance extra great hard team work
I wanted to be here and I think we have a great chance to win. We have a great team and it will just take some extra hard work to get where we want to be. We will get there and I want to be part of it.
four score win
Sometimes you don't have to score four goals. We have to find a way to win the 2-1 and 1-0 games.
against took
They took away everything. I think the Finns showed them how to play against us.
bit might team together trying
They might be a little bit fatigued, but we don't care. We're trying to get together our own team and keep going on this roll.
days forgot game ready regardless stick win
We have to stick with the plan. Right now the game is over, and we have to forgot about it and get ready for our other game, regardless if we win or loose. We have to play, and one of these days they will go in.
figured individual picked situation teams
I just really think that teams figured us out. Tactic-wise, those teams outplayed us totally. They picked us apart, and they put us in a situation where we had to play individual hockey.
area awesome compete loves night people wanting watch
I know how much this area loves hockey, and I know how much people were wanting us to come back. They want to watch us compete every night, and that's what's awesome about this crowd. Hopefully, they'll come every night and keep it up.
march
(Games) are all big right now and when we get to March and April, they'll be even bigger.
fell goal might stopped third
I feel if I had stopped the breakaway we might have had a chance. After the third goal we fell apart.
satisfied ugly win
It's the most important part to get the win and don't give them a point. If you look at that way, we can say we are satisfied with our game. We got the win. Sometimes it will be ugly, and it was one of them, an ugly one tonight.
