head playoff ready time
We're in a playoff race. There's no time to put your head down and pout. We've got to get ready to get back at it (today).
comeback goals playoffs regulation scoring seen three tie
Even when I played, I've never seen a comeback in the playoffs like that. Scoring three goals at the end of regulation and the one to tie it up, it showed our character.
best matter playing playoff point team worst
Right now, every game's a big game. It doesn't matter who you're playing. When you're in a playoff race, it doesn't matter if you're playing the best team or the worst team. Every point counts.
hockey lines simple three wheel
We're not reinventing the wheel of hockey here. It's just simple things, and we did that here tonight. We do that, we can come at you with three lines and keep going and going.
games guys pulling results speaks team winning
What they've done speaks for itself. They're a team with 18 guys pulling the same way. The results are pretty evident; they're winning a lot more games than they're losing.
battle behind good lie small step toward
We're still behind the 8-ball. This is a small step toward where we want to go. It was good to see that it's going to be a long series. We're going to battle and we're not going to lie down.
bed best excited great ready rink
We've got to go to bed ready to get up and play. When we get to the rink, it's the same thing. Get there, get ready to go out and have fun. It's a great place to go play. It's the best rink in the league. We should be excited to get out there and play.
basically building game home
You basically look at we have a Game 7 in our home building (tonight).
guys learning lesson stick win
Tonight, I think that was as important a learning lesson as well as a win to show the guys here that if they stick with it, what they can accomplish.
bother good held power
We've held them on their power play, too. We've got good chances. I can't say that our power play didn't get good chances. It did. The power play doesn't really bother me.
bench looked net
On the bench it looked like the net moved. But you can't really see from the bench.
next nine
These next nine or 10 days, we're going to find out what we're made of.
created dug eight minutes nine period played stand time
Say what you want about (goals) three, four, five, six, seven, eight and nine, but the first two killed us. Once again, you look up and it's 14 minutes to go in the first period and we've dug a hole. Nothing went right for us and everything went right for them, but at the same time they created nine goals. They played hard. We have to stand up to that better.
few score step third
Evan was very sharp. Come the third period, we were able to step up and score a few goals.
