playing todd
Right now Todd is playing so well, we could probably play him in net.
last night ready thinking
Our thinking was last night he was ready to play.
anybody division effort fooled tough ways win
Our division is a tough division and we've got to find a way to be better in it. I don't think anybody can look at our effort and say we're upset, but I don't think we can be fooled by it either. We've got to find ways to win these divisional games, they're very important in the standings.
collection guys replace specific
You don't replace guys like Ed with one specific guy. It has to be a collection of people.
crucial preserve saves
Auld made some crucial saves tonight, especially at the end to preserve the win.
against early good maybe minnesota panicked playing unlucky
They got the early power-play goal, which was unlucky on a deflection, and we maybe panicked a little bit. When you're panicking and not playing with a lot of jump, that's not a good combination to have against a hard-working Minnesota team.
call goal puzzling team
The crease call to nullify a goal for us was a little puzzling. But it's always puzzling when your team isn't the benefactor of the call.
came decision games miss per
I know he doesn't like to miss games but it's the right decision and collectively we came to it. He hasn't been 100 per cent.
biggest last liked points reason
I really liked the way our goalie responded in the last two periods. He was probably the biggest reason that we got the two points tonight.
along awful category eddie guy makeup maybe overall people players risking terms thoughtful types
In terms of the makeup of our overall team, we've got an awful lot of players who are thinking-type players. Eddie is in the category of a guy that's very passionate, is maybe a risking personality. You need those types of people along with the thinking, thoughtful players you have to make it all mesh.
game good team
If you take the game as a whole, we did some good things. I like the way our team is working right now. End result, though, is that you need to get points.
attention paid
I don't know. I've never paid attention to that. I don't know who decides. I think it comes from the league, doesn't it?
approach believe difference though
I approach every day as though I can make a difference. And I really believe I can make a difference with this team.
cap leave people room situation sure year
It's unfortunate that you've got to do these things, but that's what we have to do with this cap situation this year and make sure we leave enough room to have people here as we go on.
