good start surprise
Hopefully, we get off to a good start and surprise some people.
along ice injury next start therapy week
They said everything was on track, that the injury was what we thought it was right along. I'll take a week off, relax, and when next week comes along I'll start therapy again. Hopefully, I'll be on the ice and back at it in two weeks.
build chemistry gain momentum next playing start trying
We're playing for something. We're trying to build a lot of momentum right now and gain some chemistry for the start of next season.
gave
I think it was big to give that goalie a little downer. He just got called up and to get that first one out of the way I think gave us the momentum.
fed great half ice
I was fed up with (the attention) after a half a day. What he has been able to do on and off the ice has been great for our game.
chances finish goals guys job older pick pressure score seems
We just have to pick up our game, finish on our opportunities. It seems like a lot of the young guys are getting chances but not finishing. That's our job to finish and score goals and once we do that it'll take pressure off the older guys.
came lots maybe
We came back around. We really had lots of chances. Maybe we could have had more than five. But we did play strong.
hot tons
We had tons of chances. When you're hot you're hot, and when you're not, you're not.
great guy ice knows won
He's been a great guy off the ice and on the ice. He's won championships. He knows what it takes.
five lost pounds
I lost five pounds over the summer, and I know where they went. Nash has them.
four game joe mold three
I'd like to play like Joe Thornton does right now. I try to mold my game around his. If you say four years, three years down the road, if I could be where he is, then I'd be pretty happy.
anybody coming head middle sure
I am sure if I was coming through the middle with my head down, anybody would do the same thing to me.
bit came exciting five game lots maybe scoring simple strong tonight
Tonight we were a bit more simple (in our play) and it showed in the score. The scoring came back around tonight. We had lots of chances. Maybe we could have had more than five (goals). But we did play strong tonight. It was an exciting game and we got two points.
chance left playoff wish
Personally, I wish there were another 30 or 40 (games) left and we had a chance at a playoff spot.
