breakdown difference playing power
We're playing a lot better, but it's still a loss. We had a breakdown at the end of the second. Then they had a power play at the end and they scored. That was the difference in that game.
decisions either good throwing
We weren't making good decisions at either line, ... We weren't getting pucks out of own end. And in our end, we were throwing pucks away.
anywhere cause chaos door knowledge opens pass somebody trying
Somebody is trying to pass something they have no knowledge about, and it will cause chaos. It opens up the door to recruiting. You can go anywhere without any restrictions or consequences.
economy-and-economics exposure sector
The telecom sector has significant exposure to the economy.
cake expecting game goal period played playing power
You never go into a game expecting a cake walk. I thought we played well enough to win. But again, the power play didn't come through in the first period on the 5-on-3. Then, they get that power play goal and we're playing catch-up.
brings closest figure gets group guys hard road team trips
This is probably the closest group of guys we've had. Trips like this help, because it gets everybody, especially the guys with families, involved. It brings us together. The way our team plays, we should play as well as on the road as we do at home. It's hard to figure out.
entertain fans game paid quite
That's not quite accurate. There are still things to play for. You're still getting paid to play, this is still a game where you try to entertain the fans so you try to go hard.

This could be a significant negative for Qwest, which is currently a large provider of wholesale transport services to BellSouth.
couple late penalties played team
We need to be able to put a team away. We weren't able to do that, but we were able to get a late goal. Two breakdowns and a couple of penalties in the first, other than that, we played pretty well.
team
We need to be able to put a team away. We weren't able to do that.
along build chances net second teams third time trying
Part of what we're trying to do is get pucks to the net and outwork teams along the boards, something we'd like to build on. But now pucks are just going to the net. Some of the time when we're getting a lot of those chances we're trying to get second and third opportunities. It's really just getting the bounces.
advance expectation few past quarters results shown wheels
Clearly, the past few quarters of above-expectation results have shown that the wheels have not come off at AT&T in advance of the merger.
break build complacent good happen lose ourselves rebuild time trying win worst
Before going into a break you want to feel good about yourself. When you got time off the worst thing that could happen is you lose a game. You have that much more time to think about it. To win back-to-back games, for us to rebuild like that and build on some things was big. Not being complacent after a win was big for us. We're trying to claw ourselves back to that .500 level.
erase four games goals guy next type
He's still getting chances. I know as well as anyone, goalies are good. You are not always going to score. He's the type of guy who can go out and get four goals the next two games and erase the drought.
