What you saw tonight was a team that didn't quit, that battled, that pushed the game the second half. I was disappointed with the two goals we conceded in the first half. But in the end, we got a tie, we're in the playoffs, we've reached goal No. 1 and that's very good. |
When I look at the tape, I would like to think we may have had a few more chances in the game overall. But this is not an easy place to play. We felt we needed to come away with a point or three and we accomplished that. |
When you look long term from today, Feb. 9, and extend it out to June 25, sure, it's a daunting calendar. But I think it's so much of an attitude and a mental approach to it. We knew that the first stretch of games was going to be on the road and being down here and away from the comfort of home is just something that we're going to have to get used to. |
You don't make changes for change's sake. You put guys in that are healthy and in good form. Right now we have a very thin roster. We're going to count on everybody to get back into good form. |
Zach got sick in Mexico, and that set him back. Physically, he was out of the box for a little while, and it took him a little time to get back to the form we've expected of him. |
Zach started Saturday and came through fine with his calf, so his health isn't an issue. He had a good week of training and a good solid game against New England. |
