bat beneficial early gel gets good happened prepared salt superstars team teams terms tougher wants
It is beneficial for us in terms of getting us going. When you get so many superstars from different backgrounds everyone has to gel and sometimes when you play good teams right off the bat like in Salt Lake, everyone wants to do their own thing and it gets tougher and tougher. I think that happened in Salt Lake, I don't think we were really prepared to play as a team early on.
afraid felt good happy leg looking survived
I survived the game, ... Personally, I felt really good in there. My leg was good. I was not afraid to play the way I wanted to play. That's something I was looking at before getting a start. I'm pretty happy about it.
definitely effort everybody expected good happy since victory win
We are definitely expected to win but we had to do it the way we did it. The way we did it was the thing everybody was happy about. It was not just skimming a victory out of a shootout or something like that. This was a good effort and it's been a while since we had one like that.
competition good
We're going to have a good competition and that's what you want.
fit good runs ship surely whoever worried
We're just worried about what we do on the ice. Whoever runs the ship will surely be a good fit for us.
bit felt good looked pass position react shot somebody turn until
When he got the pass, he kind of looked right away to see if somebody was open. He never looked at me until he shot the puck. I felt like I was in good enough position to be able to turn my body just a little bit to react to a pass and he just snuck it right through me.
against early five game goals good great last remember sure time tonight
He's been always really good against us. I don't remember the last time (the Devils' scored five goals on Hasek). I'm sure we did it, but I'm not sure when. We had so many opportunities tonight early in the game and he still made some great saves.
good night ready
I feel good and I feel re-energized. That night off was good for me and I feel like I'm ready to go.
advantage against backs downs games good hard lucky manage pull series situations took ups wall work
You have to manage your ups and downs in a series to be successful. We've been able to pull through in situations where our backs were against the wall a little bit, but we took advantage of some lucky breaks. That's the way games go, if you work hard good things will happen.
fans good italian knew matter saw time tough
It was tough to get going right away and I think you saw that. It (the Italian goal) was good for the fans and they got excited. But we knew it was just a matter of time before we would score.
early good held performance sat worst
The worst thing for us was probably getting the early lead. We sat back after that, but in the end we held on and got a good performance out of our guys.
excited flow good guys rules shut
The rules are there and there is a lot more flow to the game. If we are able to play this way and not take a lot of penalties, you'll see this more and more from our team. It's not just me. All the guys are excited that we are able to shut down good teams.
good played
They probably played as good as they can play.
against good hard team
Defensively, we were awesome. That's as good as a team can play. I don't know how hard they competed against us, but we don't care. It's about how we play.
