line lines seems trying work
Chemistry. I was trying to find some lines that would work together. That line seems to be working pretty good.
anytime behind expect playoff team weekend
It's a big weekend anytime you play a team that's right behind you two times in one weekend. I do expect a playoff atmosphere.
great happy playoff points spot
It's a great feeling. It's unbelievable that you have to get 92 points to clinch a playoff spot but we're happy we're in. We'll try and take it from there.
hopefully
Not this week. Hopefully when we get back. We're hoping.
dig hole ourselves playing
It's a big hole for us. But, we've got to find a way to dig ourselves out. Play hard. We've just got to keep playing hard. You have to play for 60 minutes. You can't play for 20.
games good guys hershey hope
I think you have to (get up for the Hershey game). You hope the guys are up for it. They've been some of the better games too. They've all been good games. I think there was one blowout.
accept five fourth game lack lose
Lack of effort. If you lose that way and you got an effort. If you lose that game, fourth game in five nights, and got an effort, you can accept it a little bit. When you don't have the effort, you can't accept it.
change goes good lose maybe mistake played
We played a good game. You lose and what do you do? You don't change a lot. It's unfortunate. First period, we maybe made one mistake and it goes in our net.
came gotten improved played second third time
First time he came up I thought he played pretty good. The second time he came up, he'd improved a lot. I think he's even gotten better this third time. He's been a real sparkplug for us in the playoffs.
game looking overall starting trend worries
Looking at the overall game I think that it's starting to become a trend and it worries me. Defensively, I think we're slipping away. That's the trend that really worries me. We've got to get that part of our game back.
advantage control destiny position team trying
We can't go in trying to take any team lightly. We're in position to pretty much control our own destiny right now and we've got to take advantage of it.
almost depend good hard max means nice numbers plays
He's put up some real good numbers while he's been down here. Max plays his game. He plays hard every night. I can depend on him defensively almost every time. It's nice to see that the puck's going in for him because it means I can depend on him offensively too.
game games pressure relieved second split win
It was a big game for us. You know you've got two games with them this weekend. A split is OK. But to get that first one is great. It relieved the pressure of having to win that second game. But we'd still like to win that second game for sure.
great night played puck rushes saves turned
They played patient. When we turned over the puck they made great rushes all night long. Dany made some great saves out there on some of those rushes. We've got to be better. We can't turn the puck over as much as we did.
