feet hockey moving played playing playoff puck
I think we played with more desperation and we had the puck more in their zone. That just comes from moving your feet and not playing on your heels. This is playoff hockey and you can't play on your heels.
fighting fights-and-fighting forced pick playing puck

anytime dallas drake front good guys job playing point power running seeing weight
I'm seeing a lot of minutes, a lot of power-play time. Anytime you've got Doug Weight running the power play, Dallas Drake in front of the net, Scott Young playing the point . . . that's a big factor. They know how to play the game.

bottom business guy hard job last league locker loss playing respects side teams top whatever wins year
I'll tell you what: I've been on top teams in the league and I've been on bottom teams in the league. And I haven't been on a team that has a better locker room. Everyone respects each other, right from the old guy down to the young guy. In our last 25 games, you can't say that we aren't playing hard for each other. We are playing hard; we're just not getting the job done. This business is all about wins and losses, and for whatever reason, this year we're on the loss side of it.

red worry
We're not going to worry about the Red Wings. We've got to worry about our game.
