factors
They're all now important factors on this team.
dangerous hard playing playoffs teams though
They play hard even though they aren't in the playoffs because they're playing for pride. Those are dangerous teams to play.
enthusiasm fans great ice man sixth
That was great. Our fans have such great enthusiasm. They're the sixth man on the ice for us. It's an intimidation factor.
knocked maybe reality
Maybe this is good. It knocked us down a bit. Maybe we're back to reality a bit.
deserve game held hockey maybe
He held us in a hockey game that maybe we did not deserve to be in.
consistency earlier
I'd like to see a little more consistency out of Scooter and Kenny. If they play like they did earlier in the year, they can take us a long way.
bags bumps guys huge ice locker needed tough
It was huge for us. It was a very tough series. We have guys with bumps and bruises. There are ice bags all over the locker room. This allows us to get some much needed rest.
couple
He did not look out of place at all. I think he scored at least a couple on me.
sounds time
That sounds great. I'm very happy. It's been a long time coming. It's well deserved.
capable line nice putting whatever
Right now it's better than ever. It's nice to know that whatever line we put out there, they're capable of putting it in the net.
consistency good hockey minutes played problem tonight
Consistency has been a problem for us, especially on the road. But we played 50 minutes of good hockey tonight and that's not always enough, but it was tonight.
fate good position rests
Our fate rests in our own hands. And that's a good position to be in.
bring needed strength
We needed to bring in size, strength and talent.
advantage certainly dictate division games hard next nice ourselves three whether win worked
We've certainly worked hard to put ourselves in that position. The next three games will dictate whether we have home-ice advantage or win a division title. It's nice to be in that position.
