Unfortunately, I'm one of the guys that gets too emotional. So I've got to learn to pull the reins back a little bit. Sometimes I say things I shouldn't say. I'm going to try and get better in that area, not yell at the refs too much. |
Until you get to step on the ice with him every day, you don't realize how much he puts into it. |
We got into a little bit of a pond hockey game there, and that can get you in trouble. |
We just got away from our game plan a little bit. I mean, we're working hard. It's not a matter of work ethic. Mistakes we make against really good teams, they end up in our net. |
We really battled back for about six weeks there. We didn't expect to make the playoffs but we had a lot of players playing well for next year. And then we got hurt again. |
We threw him to the wolves a little bit early in the year and he lost his confidence a little bit but he went down (to Peoria of the AHL), played really well, and the last couple games he's been outstanding. |

We're not very pretty to watch, but we work really hard. We keep it real simple and that's the only way we give ourselves a chance every night. |

We've got to get back to remember what we did to give us success when we were winning. What gave us success was everybody contributed, it wasn't one or two guys. |
We've played a lot of games in January and up to this point. And we'll play a lot after the break. So it's important for guys to get the rest. |
You could look at it two different ways. You could look at it as being relieved, we're moving on. But for guys like me, the way I look at it, it's frustrating because you'd rather find a way to get back on the ice and figure it out. |
You look at some of how young our forwards are, but they've really stepped to the forefront and made the difference in us winning and losing hockey games. And our goaltending has been out of this world. |
