It's something we discussed. It might have been different if it was just this year. |
It's two points closer to a playoff spot. And it's gaining some credibility and confidence. |
It's unfortunate to lose it this way. It's frustrating when you give a team like Toronto the number of power plays you give them. That's their bread and butter. |
It's very disappointing. We have some time to regroup ... look at the game, see what we need to be better at. |
Last time I checked, we're in the entertainment business. |
Lately he's probably been our most valuable player. He's a key guy on our power play, I've used him to kill penalties and he plays 5-on-5. He's really played well in this last stretch. |

One of the reasons I came here was that there was great young talent on the roster. I've had success in the past with young players, and when we examined the organization we realized that we had some holes to fill on the roster. We filled those holes with quality veterans who have won Stanley Cups. |
One thing young kids bring to a franchise is enthusiasm, energy and excitement. |
Our leaders stepped up. Olli got two goals. They had a strong game, his line. And I liked how we attacked in overtime. We didn't sit back. |
Realistically, when you look at that injury, you've got to give it some time. A week, two weeks — it depends how he recovers. |
Right now, we're in the thick of the schedule. We have three home games this week, and they're huge for us. It's up to us to make the most of it. |
Sim competed hard tonight. He was really on the puck and really hungry. |
Some of the games he's won have been the busiest. That's good he plays well that way, but over the haul you want to give him better protection, less work. |
That goal was the turning point. We had the momentum but gave them the goal in the last minute. |
