I thought they were on their way. |
I thought we came out and really executed and had big speed, and it was great. We gave up four goals but we never gave up -- holy mackerel. Like, how does that happen? I don't know. But the guys found a way to keep getting more. |
I thought we did a lot of great things tonight. The way I look at it, you play like this, 99% of the time you win. |
I thought we got a good effort from everyone. |
I thought we got better as the game went on, to be honest. It was a good win for us. |
I thought we had quality chances throughout the game, we just found a way to finish. |
I thought we made some nice passes but didn't attack the net. We made one more pretty play, one more cute play, all night long, instead of doing what we had been doing, and in the end that came back to bite us. |
I thought we were a step behind all night long. |
I thought we were really going to play tonight. At times, we did. |
I told my dad that I really want to make this work here because this would be a great place to win and give my family some stability. If you don't win, there are no guarantees. |
I told you guys that was going to be the case. That didn't surprise me much. |
I want to know who is going to be five and six at playoff time. I want to have a look at him and ( Jason Woolley ) and Cross and we'll decide. That's our depth, anyway. |
I wanted to have a competitive training camp. So we went through and put the lineup together. We used Jimmy Nill's advice on all the young guys because I don't know the young guys, and then we tried to get the guys who played in the national league and played on our team to be as competitive a group as we possibly could be, with leadership in all groups. |
I was really impressed with Williams. Whether he was playing defense or up front, he's been one of the best players at camp. |
I was trying to tell (general manager) Kenny Holland that's pretty impressive but he wasn't having anything to do with it. He said that happens 10 out of 12 years around here so you've got to do more than that. |
