advantage credit giving managing poised puck reason taking
We're just not poised enough with the puck. We're not managing the puck well and we're not taking advantage of what they've giving us. Give credit to Carolina. There's a reason they're in first place.
behind
We're behind the 8-ball a little bit, but there's still a long way to go.
considered full good guys last moving poised seem seen sitting teams throats
There are a lot of good teams out there, and if we want to be considered one of them, we have to show up to play for a full 60 minutes. From what I've seen the last two games, teams are sitting back, but our team is not poised enough with the puck. We seem to be ramming it down our own throats and moving it where they have their guys positioned.
came definitely game good job managing power quality running sloppy
We did not do a good job in managing their pressure. There was a lot of running around and too many quality chances. Definitely the most sloppy game in this stretch, but fortunately, the power play came up big for us.
score since
They are frustrating and demoralizing to give up, especially since we didn't score any 5-on-5 goals.
awhile build consider excited focus focused good hard heads ourselves stay straight strong sure talent team teams tons west work
We feel we have a better team. I've been here awhile and this is the most excited I've been. But we have to focus on making sure that we work hard and keep that going. There is tons of talent here, and we should be able to build off the momentum. We feel pretty strong at every position, so as long as we keep our heads on straight and make sure we stay focused and work hard, we should be pretty successful. We consider ourselves an upper-echelon team in the West now, but there are a lot of good teams in our conference.
