chances creating
We've been creating more chances as a group.
feels home winning
Winning at home and scoring, it always feels good,
ducks fun
We had a little more jump, a little more desperation. I think we had more fun tonight, too. The Ducks were doing it, too, for two periods. It was back and forth.
games good lately played
We've played a lot of games lately and it was good to get a win.
came draw good
We came out and had a good start, and were able to draw some penalties.
excuses game gone hopefully mindset
We'll try to have the same mindset for Game 2 as we did Game 1. Now hopefully all the excuses are gone and we can keep going.
exciting thinking
What's important is to keep going but yeah, we're thinking we want to clinch. But then we want the division. Those are exciting things, for sure, and they're in our sight.
literally second shot stanley winning
We were literally one shot away, one second away from winning the Stanley Cup.
close fans hear holding hurt imagining sitting time took
When you get that close and then you hear the other team, the other fans celebrating to 'Simply The Best' and 'We Are The Champions', that hurt. It hurt a lot. We didn't know who was holding the Cup, but each time someone else took it, you could hear the fans go nuts. We're just sitting there, soaking all of this in and imagining what it would feel like ... if it was us.
earned period power ready
We weren't as ready as we should be. If we take 'em, we've got to kill penalties. They had pretty much the whole first period in power plays, and they earned that.
ahead chance fun morning saw woke
We didn't like the way we woke up this morning and saw they had jumped ahead of us. That's what makes these back-to-backs so much fun is if you lose, you get a chance to get right back at it.
five hard ourselves penalties penalty third trouble
We got ourselves in penalty trouble tonight. I think we had five penalties in the third period. In a tie game, it's hard to get offense.
five ourselves penalty team third trouble
We got ourselves into penalty trouble. They had five in the third period, or something like that, and two five-on-threes. You can't give any team that many chances.
ahead club top
We do think we're going to be a really competitive club and we want to be one of the top clubs, but we know it's not going to be easy, ... We're not going to get ahead of ourselves.
