We thought we'd have to be patient with him, but we didn't have to wait long. He's played very well. |
We're fortunate to have players who can play a variety of roles. With the new rules and all the penalties, we have to be in a position where we can get as many people involved so that our top players aren't on the ice all the time. |
We're playing well and we're finding ways to win tight games, |
We're putting ourselves in that situation. Over 82 games, once in a while, you like to find ways to make it easier. |
We've tried to discuss that about giving the defensemen a chance to maybe help out our goaltenders a little bit more, ... Listen, these new rules, it doesn't mean they're perfect. They're good, we need to adjust to them and hopefully down the road we'll make some small adjustments to them. |

You can't judge a goaltender by one bad goal, |
You can't judge a goaltender by one bad goal. |
You can't say he had a bad game because as a team, we didn't play well, |
You're disappointed when you lose 4-0, but if you consider the position we were in with our roster and all the situations that have happened in the past couple days, I thought we played a pretty tight game. We just have to regroup and hopefully get our walking wounded back. |
