We all know that sometimes when you play, you feel like you're slow and you get a slow start and that's something that we can't do in Toronto, |
We did our job by winning our game. What are you going to do? They fought back. They're the hottest team in the league and they showed they could fight to the end. They deserve it and now we've got to focus on Buffalo. |
We dominated the game in Buffalo because of the start. The start of the game is very important for us, especially with the type of team we have. |
We have not had one game where the entire team has been healthy. This is a chance to get some guys rest and get a few guys back after the break. |
We need to get as close as possible as soon as possible. That's the challenge in front of us. |
We need to get back to what we were doing good. We need to figure out what we're doing wrong. |
We tried to start better and score a couple of quick goals, and it was a big plus when we did that. Overall, I think we played pretty well defensively. |
We wanted to get back on track. You go two games without scoring a goal and it gets in your mind a bit. |
We were all aware of that but we came flat with no energy. |
We're pretty excited and hopefully it's going to click [again]. |
We're still in first. We lost a couple games recently and they won their games so they got closer to us. It's going to be a big game. We want to stay at the top. |
When we try to chase them that's what they want. They want us to open that (four-man) box. |
When you have everybody, it brings some confidence for the other lines. We had success with that (line) at the start of the year and hopefully it can help us win games the rest of the way. |
Without saying what adjustments that we made, we played a lot harder than we did in the second game. I don't want to say we're back in the series, but we're close. |
You always want to do something special when you're coming back. |
