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.
flow
There's a flow to the game, but when you take penalties, there is no flow.
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.
penalty point shots
The shots were 8-1 at one point and 13-3 and then we had a penalty and we don't kill it. I think that was the story of the game.
avoid best coaching concern cut goal hard penalties shots staff type unless
The shots on goal are a concern for the coaching staff and the whole team, not just Olie. It's kind of hard to avoid those type of things unless you cut your penalties down. But we're fortunate. We think he's the best goalie in the league.

Did I hear a whistle before the puck went in the net? Of course not. It's a call that really hurt us.

Did I hear a whistle before the puck went in the net? No, of course not. The interpretation of the rule was explained to me and I don't agree with it.
beat directing game good hard job life net saves seen teams
I've never seen so many good saves in a game in my life by a goalie. They beat us at our game, and our game is outworking teams and directing pucks to the net and they did a good job at that. That's the hard part to swallow.
beat deserve directing far game good hard job life losing net saves seen teams
As far as losing in overtime, we didn't deserve to be there. I've never seen so many good saves in a game in my life by a goalie. They beat us at our game, and our game is outworking teams and directing pucks to the net and they did a good job at that. That's the hard part to swallow.
exciting game goodness gracious players rules speed
With the new rules and the speed of the players and the way that the game was officiated tonight, if that's the way it's going to be, then goodness gracious -- it's an exciting game out there.
cash great knows situations types
Those are the types of situations where you get opportunities and you cash in on it. Who knows what that will be a springboard to? He's got a great shot. He had an opportunity.
focusing good improvement next spent step stretch time tried winning work
Our next step of improvement is to play a 20-game stretch where we go .500. If you play .500 for 20 games, that's a pretty good cross-section of the schedule. We haven't spent a lot of time focusing on those things. We've tried to get better and improve and work on our systems. Winning will be a byproduct of that.
miss practice single
That's the part I like. He didn't miss a single practice.
coach emphasize focus forget goal good great lose model outlook pat people players role ruin sight wrong
I really want to emphasize that we have good people here and we can never lose sight of that. Sometimes people focus on the things that went wrong and forget we have great players. I have told the players that I will be patient. ... I had a role model in my coach Pat Quinn when I was a player. He had a goal that he would never ruin anyone's outlook on the game.
