bounce handed happens points puck stick stuff
We handed two points away. That's a shame. We had the puck on our stick and didn't get the puck out of our zone. When stuff like that happens at this point of the season, it's inexcusable. But we'll bounce back.
caught focus forget games played points
We've played all these (recent) games as if they're must-win games. That being said, you can't get too caught up with the focus being two points that you forget about the process.
battling extra kept night plenty points
There is plenty of time. You want the two points in regulation, but we kept battling all night long. We just couldn't find a way to get that extra point earlier.
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.
charge good hard people point somebody stick time willing
He's going to play a lot more on the point because we need somebody back there who is willing to take charge and make hard plays, hard snappy passes. And I thought he did a really good job. It's going to take time to get other people comfortable in the other positions, but I'm going to stick with it.
dominant game last player points puck side spread time top
He was on top of his game in all five. Last season, if you look, he had a lot of points but he had them in 3-4 games. This time it's been spread out and he's been a dominant player just about every shift. He's on the right side of the puck all the time.
happens point puck season stick
We had the puck on our stick and didn't get it out of the zone. And when something like that happens at this point of the season it's inexcusable.
point
At this point in the season, that is inexcusable.
job lack people point respect step sure teammates trust trying
There comes a point where we have to have some people step up and play as well as they can and make sure that their teammates aren't trying to do too much. And you have to respect people around you. That's a lack of trust if you don't think other people can do the job that you try to do too much.
good guy lack people point step teammates telling tries trust trying
There comes a point when we have to have some people step up and play as well as you can. That's a lack of trust if you're trying to do too much. If one guy tries to play 1-on-1 hockey, that's telling your teammates they aren't good enough.
excited fault minutes needs patty playing point power
I wanted to get Patty a little more involved. I think he got excited to see he'd be on the point on the power play. He needs to be playing around 20 minutes a game. It was my fault he didn't play more the other night.
gas point running toward view
Toward the end we were running out of gas but we got a point so I'm not disappointed. I'm not going to view this as a loss.
couple handed plays points soft
A couple of soft plays and we handed these two points away, just not one but two. And it's a shame.
afraid compete guys point
The young guys with the way they're competing, they're really hungry, and that's what you need at this point in the season. Not guys who are afraid to fail, but guys that go out there and compete really hard.
