We didn't do it yet and it's too early to celebrate. We have to make sure we get in the playoffs first and take care of other business later.
We have to keep the next game close. We have to be able to score and not make any mistakes. We have to try to get one win and then you never know. Anything is possible. We have nothing to lose. We are almost dead.
We didn't respond to the stuff they played. We weren't smart enough.
We've got nothing to lose. We're almost dead. I said that if I could play, I was going to play. I didn't help much. Somehow we have to score goals.
We gave the other team a lot of odd-man rushes. Maybe we are tired and we're making mistakes, but this is not the way you want to go into the playoffs.
We didn't start very well. Since then we have been playing pretty good.
Tom is a great guy. He's not only a good coach but I think he understands the life of the hockey player and how important it is off the ice to treat the players. The chemistry on the team is great and, so far, it's been fun for everybody here.
We're fighting for first place in our division, so it's huge.

Until we win a game, of course it's slipping away. We don't play the same way for whatever reason. I just hope it's the injuries. When we have all our guys back healthy, then I can answer that.
We've got five months before the season starts. Hopefully, if there is any surgery it's not going to be complicated and I might start practicing next month.
I faked the shot to see what the goalie was going to do and then I hit the net.
I don't think we were smart enough to win. They outsmarted us.
I don't think I've seen a better player shoot the one-timer. It was a gift.
