easy fast goals good human nature score tendency three
I think it's human nature that when you score three goals as fast as we did, you have a tendency to think how good you are and how easy it is. In hockey, goals can come in bunches, and that's what happened.
discussed given last
It's bothersome. We've given up way too many two-on-ones and breakaways over the last 10 days, and we've discussed it as a team.
both call crazy message penalty period teams
I think it was a message to both teams that he was going to call everything he saw. It was the right thing to do. It was kind of crazy that everything was a penalty one period and nothing was after that.
act balancing division gas healthy hockey left playing proper rested tendency title winning work

So I have no problem.

both either fresh guys healthy power whoever year
This year it's either been Mueller healthy or Hamill healthy, and they are the guys who quarterback our power play. We really haven't had that many times when they've both been healthy. They are both very capable, so whoever is fresh is going to be the guy to go.

Leland was by far our best player. He was awfully good, especially the more the game wore on, the better he got.
game great rest sleep
All we can do is eat, sleep and rest as much as we can. There's really nothing else we can do. It was a great game in a very competitive series.
