We still have a chance. We're playing two teams we're going to battle with. Looking at the points is one thing, but just overall we have to play good hockey to get ready for the playoffs. |
We wanted to come out and show we have a good team. |
We were down 2-0 and played pretty well for 40 minutes then came up brutal in the third and gave up a bad goal in overtime. At least we came back again, but we didn't play well enough to win. |
We were up 5-4 and we stopped playing and they totally outplayed us in the third. We were not skating and not doing anything. We didn't work hard for our chances. |
We wished we had time to go back to Sweden. |
We worked hard to get the puck in their zone a lot, but it was one chance and out. We didn't have any second or third opportunities. We just didn't have enough people in front for rebounds. |
We'll see how it feels by Friday. It's a hard decision to say no. I'm not going to rush to anything. |
We'll see what happens. I'm not going to try to force it. |
We're just playing for positioning. It's not like you have to win or you're out. |
We're not skating, we're not hitting, we're not doing anything. When we had the lead, we never really went after them. We sat back and waited for the other team to score. It's been like that most of the year. |
We're one point behind them and we've got one more game, so it looks pretty good. I think we showed everybody we can play good hockey for 60 minutes. |
We've been down 1-0, even 2-0, in every game. It's definitely time for us to start strong. It's a huge game. |
We've been up and down lately. But the games we've won, we've played well. It's a tough opponent and it's tough to start on the road, but I'm confident in our team. |
What caught me was the team. They have a couple young great players coming up. They have big boys, skill guys, a good coach, an organization that wants to win and a good city. They've got everything. |
With everything he has been through, having him come through in such a crucial part of the game was great. It means a lot because it represents the character this team has. |
