This time of year, with so few games left, I still think we need to do some coaching we can't just let them run and not teach in certain areas, but in these situations you need to get the points no matter how you do it. Then we'll worry about the other stuff after. |
This was a game as a measuring stick for us early in the year to see where we're at. We deserved that result. |
This was closer to what this team plays like. It's been missing a bit. That's more of the personality of our club, but you have to come back and do it again. |
This was one of the craziest games I've ever been involved with. There were more fluky goals than I've ever seen in my life. |
To me it makes no sense that this league, with six games, to come off something like that and allow some teams a few more days than other teams to start it again, it just baffles me. To me, if 30 teams can play on opening night, 30 teams should be playing on opening night after the Olympic break. |
To me, that's the really good thing here. It's the mentality of the team: they just keep on going. ... We're having problems finishing our chances, but it's not getting anybody down. We just try to keep on going. |
We are right where we want to be. Right where we want to be. |
We came back three times. It was tremendous as far as that's concerned. But as far as our concentration level and what we have to do to continue to get better, I thought we were a sloppy team. |
We did what we had to ... start re-establishing us at home. |
We didn't play well ... all the facets. We couldn't get out of our own way. |
We had a chance to win. We doubled them in scoring chances and we don't score. |
We had let a (lack of) effort seep into our team and I was scared to death that that kind of effort had become acceptable. If we lose our work ethic, we're an average or a below-average team. |
We had some great opportunities. In the first half of that game, I thought we had some good opportunities. I think that's the key of the game. Both teams had some opportunities, they scored on a couple, we didn't. |
We have a pretty good idea of who is going to be staying with us. |
We have a short time left in our season. At times you have to have amnesia and for a good part of this game we will, but there are some things to learn from it and now we'll just get ready for Montreal. |
