I played the short side well and he just beat me by speed. I wasn't out of position. He just got there quicker. |
I slipped and couldn't get across. (The puck) bounced straight up and came back down. It was a weird play. I think I would've gotten it if I were able to get my skate down. |
I tell you what, it does, |
I think a lot of guys, including myself, feel like the pressure's been lifted a little off our backs because it was getting pretty tough. It's a big win, now we have to keep going. |
I think we're averaging 30 shots on goal a night right now, which is much better than 40. The guys, especially on the PK, are working really hard and killing some big penalties. I'm not facing five or six shots every power play. |
I was able to get back over there and made the first save, but when he got the rebound, I kind of opened up and he snuck it right underneath me. It's a tough break, especially in a game like that. Losses are all hard, whether it's 6-3 against Phoenix or 1-0 tonight. |
I would have liked to make it a little easier on myself. But I will remember this. |
I would rather play, ... W. |
I'd like to have the first one back. The last two goals were kind of freaky goals, but what are you going to do? There's nothing to be ashamed about for me. |
I'm here to win now, ... I don't want to wait three years to make the playoffs. I haven't made the playoffs yet. For me, it's this year. That's all I'm thinking about. Hopefully these veterans make a great contribution, which I'm sure they will, and at the same time it'll help the young guys bring their game up a level. |
I'm not going to say I'm pleased about it, that's for sure. I didn't think things were going to get down to that. |
I'm not going to say I'm pleased about it, that's for sure. If they want to make sure I'll be in training camp this year, I'll be there. But I don't know what's going to happen with training camps in the future. |
I'm not really going to answer that. We all saw what happened tonight, so let's leave it that. |
I'm still perfect on penalty shots in my lifetime. |
I'm very excited. It's going to be fun to play in front of the home fans again after all this time. |
