comeback composure determination ended goals good great period power three
It was a great comeback win. We used the end of the first period to recompose ourselves. We showed some good determination and composure and ended up getting three goals on the power play.
liked period second sharks
The second period was all Sharks and I liked the way we responded.
third
He was a difference-maker in the third period.
nice scrap
He got into a nice scrap with their captain. Sometimes when you are squeezing a little bit, physicality is great.
expected help
I thought they were everything that we expected and think they'll only get better and help our club.
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.
directed energies focus focused matter playing
Our focus is playing better and better together. It's a matter of getting our energies directed and focused in one area.
game heck played pleasing types
He did really well in that (fight). I thought he played a heck of a game as well. When you get those types of efforts, it's really pleasing for the team.
bottle difficult nice period third
If we can bottle that third period and take it with us to L.A. (this Thursday), we'll be all right. It's nice to come into this place, where it's very difficult to play, and get a win.
awful chance gave great happen hop horrendous instead start talked trying
We concentrated an awful lot on our start tonight. We talked about what we wanted to do and still got off to a horrendous start. We're trying to make something happen and instead we gave a great chance right off the hop to one of the better shooters in the league.
balance centre cooke expect lines matt park playing richard
We like the balance that our lines get. I think we can expect more from Matt Cooke and Richard Park playing with a centre as accomplished as Mo.
alex bit last load schedule second tough until
We'll see how things go. We haven't had a tough schedule the last little while. Now we play every second day until Christmas. That would be a little bit of a load if Alex had to play all of that.
