(The Gwinnett series) is going to be just like the Greenville series. It's going to be tough. It's not going to get easier. It's going to get tougher. We know that. Gwinnett is a good team. |
A fine is fine with me. Nobody got hurt on the play. |
Defensive breakdowns, turnovers, no intensity, not playing physical, not shooting the puck, not driving to the net, not skating, not working hard. |
Fresno played well, we laid an egg, and it was an unacceptable performance. We have to play better. |
Guys need to start playing with more confidence. We're taking steps to do that in practice today. All you can do is coach and teach and try to get guys through this. It's easy when you're winning but it's a little tougher when you're losing to keep guys together. But we got a pretty good group of guys. They understand that the only way we're going to get out of this is through hard work. |
He has to develop strength in that arm. |
He said (Greenville) showed what type of character they have and we'll see what type of character (Florida) has. I think we answered their question. I don't think you can question our character. |
I don't expect it to be good news. He took a big hit. |
I don't think they're must-win games. But I want to win. |
I know what the scouting reports tell me, and they say that Stockton is one of the hardest-working teams in the league. That's enough for me. I expect them to be tough. |
I said we've got to be better, we have to be better. We had to come out with the energy and intensity that we did come out with and continue to do that. |
I thought we had some chances. Both teams had chances. It was a good hockey game. Any time you lose 1-0 in overtime you know you fought hard, you played well. You just ended up on the short end of the stick. |
I'm just glad we won the series. There were a lot of things said in the newspaper here. They gave it to us in the paper a little bit. But we shut our mouths, did our playing on the ice and got the series done. |
It will be a good boost. Reggie is a big part of this organization. He has been for a long time. We missed him. If he is able to play this weekend, we'll welcome him back with open arms. I'm sure he'll have an impact on the game. |
It's not his ankle. It's a different injury. |
