trying
I don't think a right winger has scored five-on-five. We're just trying to find some chemistry.
likes numbers pressure
The numbers that he has put up are astonishing. But he also likes pressure situations. In big games, he's at his best. That's special.
fourth game good until
I thought it was a good game until the fourth goal. That was kind of a backbreaker.
concerned game games practice stanley tries trying winning
He tries this way in practice, he tries this way in Game 1, and he's trying this way now. He's more concerned about winning games and winning the Stanley Cup.
confidence gone great opportunity played
He's played great down the stretch. He's started to get the opportunity to play and he's got some confidence and he's gone on from there.
five guys million pick stuck weeks wire worth
There's no way around what we're doing. We're not going to pick five guys off the waiver wire and two weeks from now we're stuck with $3 million worth of salaries and they're not going to be here. It just doesn't make any sense.

answer create deal finished game gloves injured looked occupy problems time took
He finished the game and looked like he had no problem. When he took his gloves off, it didn't look like he was all bandaged up or anything. My answer always is: If he's injured and can't play, I'll deal with it. If not, I don't want to occupy my time with things that haven't happened. I don't want to create problems for myself.
four games gave good hope months three
It's going to take Brent 10, 11, 12 games. You just hope it doesn't take three or four months to get those games in. He gave us two good starts. Brent is a good goalie. And he'll give us some more good starts.
admit choose few playoff race replace separated separation situation teams themselves younger
I can choose for this situation to use me, but I'm not going to. There are a few teams who have separated themselves from the playoff race and we're one of them. I won't say we're out of it - I'll never admit that. But there is a separation where if we are to replace people, we will see a younger player.
point since solution tried
Since I've been here we've tried not to make a point of it. We just want them to be part of the solution and not look back.
breathing focus pressure
What helped me was working with my breathing, specifically, using my breathing to stay sharp and focused under pressure and then cool and calm when the pressure was relieved.
