against hang longer team tough
We've got a young team, and we have to be a tough team to play against on the road. I think the longer we hang around in games, the better we play, and I think that's shown.
blues control general guys happen help job manager people perform player players situation team whatever win worried worry
I don't know what's going to happen here. I'm not the general manager . . . I'm not the owner. I'm just a player that has to do his job to help his team win and whatever happens, happens. We as players can only control one thing: how we perform on the ice. We need more guys worried about that than worried about other things right now. That's probably (why the Blues are in) the situation we're in right now, because people worry about that.
seven whatever work
It's up to the Blues. We don't have much to work with ... seven days. But whatever happens, happens.
We're not going to quit. We're going to keep going after everybody.

We've gone into tough buildings and won, or at least gone to overtime. It's a credit to our system and the way we play. That's what you want to establish as a road team. We can't get rattled.
