At the time, it was the right thing for our team. We think we made ourselves better in the long run and it helped build the team we have now. |
If you give David Bolland five seconds in the slot like that, he's probably going to get off a pretty good shot. It's a little frustrating to come here and play two good games and have nothing to show for it. But we'll just have to win at home -- turn it into a homer (series). |
Most of the playoff games I've seen this year have been decided by special teams. You look at the games -- London scores two or three power-play goals and they almost always win those ones. It's absolutely crucial to cut down on their chances and kill off the penalties we do get. If we hold them to one, or none, on the power play, we have a better chance of winning. |
We always seem to play well against the good teams in the league so we're confident when we bring our best game that we can do well against anybody. But our special teams have to be better than they were (yesterday). |
We're happy we won 7-1, but momentum can change in five minutes. |
