We're trying not to look too far ahead. Tomorrow is big game for us. We have to win that one before we look any further down the road.
ahead almost catch escape game pushing situation team win
This game was important. They are pushing us. The win allows us to escape from them and almost catch the team ahead of us. It's a win-win situation for us.
game good hands luck shake
We shake our hands with Don before the game and said good luck, and that was it.
game
It's going to be an interesting game for me and for other players. But I just have to be myself and play the same game.
afford chance collecting games happen left lose mean talking tampa thinking work
All we're talking about right now is getting there. We're not really thinking about what could happen if we do get there. We've got a lot of work to do. This has been pretty tough. This (stretch of games) is our playoffs. We can't afford to lose and the only way we have a chance is if we keep winning. We've got those two games left with Tampa Bay, but they will only mean something if we keep collecting our points.
against game huge last lately night played playoff saw tampa team
Lately every game for us has been a playoff game but last night against Tampa was a huge game, like a Game 7. But we told each other not to play tight, just to play hard. And we did. We played as a team and you saw what happened.
future ice opportunity wanting
I think I'm going to play a little more than in Ottawa, ... We'll see in the future. I don't want to say anything about wanting more ice time. It could be more opportunity to do more stuff.
great hoping seven
I was hoping that I didn't see anything like Dany did in Atlanta. I had a great seven years here.
jump lead talking
We were talking before the game: 'We have to jump on them and get the lead right away. And that's what we did.
medal starts tournament
The real tournament starts in the medal round. Those are the important games.
best bring short tournament
We have to bring the best in a short tournament to be successful.
best few last played worked
We worked hard. We know we haven't played our best the last few weeks.
fly puck reason skill speed waited
When they have the puck on their stick, there is no reason why you should go at them because they've got so much skill and so much speed they would just fly and go around us. We just waited and if we could, we'd go.
middle picked points
This was a big two points for us. We picked it up in the middle of the game.
