bear casual power second
We had too many casual moments. As we were getting power plays, especially in the second period, we just didn't bear down. It was sloppy. It was just like we were on our own plan.
air found gave harder seem tires
We gave up only 14 shots. We've seem to have found our rhythm. We thought they'd come out harder at the beginning, but we had more air in our tires than they did.
continue equally hard played prepare shot win
We didn't come here to win just one round. That's not why we played so hard down the stretch. We want to continue to improve. We want a shot at the Cup, simple. We've got to wait, see who we play, prepare and go at them equally as hard.
carried everybody finish focused game goal good hardest high job moment next run table
We're in pretty good shape. We want to finish as high as we can. Our goal is to run the table here. The hardest game is always the next one that you play. My job is to keep everybody focused and in the moment and not get too carried away with ourselves.
both guard maybe wire
We actually got right down to the wire on both kills. I think maybe we let our guard down a little bit.
absolutely game guys home needed plane points ready sitting
We had some guys were probably already sitting on the plane ready to go home and that's not what we needed in a game like this. Now we've got to find a way to get back points we absolutely need.
adversity face stuff
We responded to adversity and that's important because we're going to face this kind of stuff when we're on the road.
dig energy simple urgency
We're just going to have to dig down and find the energy and play with a sense of urgency that we need. It's as simple as that.
five game potent power score six stay
We've got, I think, a very potent power play. All indications are it (the calls) should stay the same -- and we'll get five or six opportunities a game and we're going to have to score at least one.
deserved second
We deserved what we got in the second period.
crowded high known point school
We desperately need the space. Our high school, especially, is severely crowded at this point and has been for years. We've known this for a long time.
focused manages penalties penalty playing power sure takes team
We've got to make sure we're focused and on-board with our penalty kill because we're playing a team right now that takes a lot of penalties and manages to get a lot of power plays.
alone execute guys pass
There aren't very many guys who would even try to make that pass let alone execute it.
close fired guys roll schedule storm worn
We're not even close to worn out. If we were worn out, the schedule would have killed us, and it didn't. We're a young team, and these guys are excited. They're all fired up. When you get on a roll like this, you storm into the playoffs.
