both chris elite entire fun ice level player playing second
He is getting back to the level of a really elite player in this league. He and Chris Durand have both been playing very well for us. If we can get our entire lineup on the ice and get things going in the right direction, it's going to be a fun second half.
anytime came chip close couple period second strong third
We came on strong in the third period. But once you get to overtime, anything can happen. They were able to chip away and get a couple in the second period and got the momentum. Anytime you have a 3-0 lead, you should be able to close out the game. No excuses.
left push score time
That was a real big save. If they score there, they still have time left to push for another one.
elevated game happy hard turned
I was very happy the way we turned it up in the third. We elevated our game and made it hard for them to do anything.
hold lead
When you have a three-goal lead it should hold up in any building. We've got no excuses.
far nearly played road steps taken three
We've played three road games, but we just haven't played nearly as well as we need to. We've taken some steps to improve, but we're far from happy.
needed scoring
We had some scoring chances, but we just didn't play as well as we needed to. We've got to play a lot harder.
energy game good passion
We just weren't very good in a big game in the standings. It was a very disappointing effort. We didn't play with enough energy or passion tonight.
goal high second
We thought the second goal was a high stick.
constantly force forcing good higher moving pressure skating speed using
We think we're a pretty good skating team, and part of that is forcing turnovers and constantly moving your legs. That's what makes us successful. We've been using our speed to force turnovers and play a higher pressure game.
areas both concerned game generally guard offensive team time
We're not perfect, but there are a lot of areas in our game that are much improved. We generally aren't a high-powered offensive team, so we have to be concerned in both ends. At this time of year, when every team has a lot to play for, you can't let your guard down.
both confidence good position
We have confidence in both guys. Both have been sharp. We feel like we're in a really good position with our goaltending.
came deserve good hard hungry played purpose smart team
We came out and played with a purpose. We played hard and smart for the most part. We know Everett is a good team and they deserve our best. We were pretty hungry all night.
egg lay tough
To go out and lay an egg like that is tough to take.
