The speed of the game stood out for me in terms of thinking quickly and making decisions. When guys get the puck on their tape it is off almost immediately and you have to learn...

We just have to battle through this stretch. We went through the same thing at the start of the year with guys out and a seven-game streak and were able to come back. Hopefully we...

Give them credit for a lot of blocked shots, but I know I had a couple that I tried to force and just missed the net. Those are the ones you have to bear down...

I could see from the bench it didn’t go in. It really helped us that it wasn’t a goal, but we weren’t really worried about it.

I know my skating is my strength, but a small guy like me has to be much better than everyone else. There are some areas I need to work on ? my overall strength and...

You can’t give a good player like Dubinsky that much open ice and he made us pay.

We played a strong game overall, but we made some critical mistakes and a good player made us pay. We can’t give a player like Dubinsky that much open ice.

Players who are going to move on in their hockey careers show up in the big games. To be a great player you have to be a great player in the playoffs.

We all expected more, to go farther than this. It’s happened. There’s nothing we can do about it.

We had the start we wanted, but we had a bad second period and let them back in it. A lot of bounces didn’t go our way in this whole series; but there’s nothing we...

It was pretty disappointing to get away from something that worked so well for us. After the game we were pretty mad about it. But it’s [the] playoffs and all we’re thinking about is our...

That shows that when we’ve lost, we’ve lost by quite a few. It’s good, though, because there are always a lot of one-goal games in the playoffs.

We had a shot mentality in the first game. In the second game, we moved the puck around too much and we weren’t moving it too well.

We’re pretty frustrated and mad right now, but we don’t have any time to hang our heads. There’s two big games left.

I’ve been putting too much pressure on myself all season to go out and score all the time. I have to lose some of that weight. If I just go out and play my hardest,...

We got the first goal. That’s all you can ask for.

I haven’t played as well or as consistent as I would have liked and haven’t really got it going. I’m not going to use the hand as an excuse. It’s fine now.

I started the season and two games in I am hurt. To go through an injury like that for six weeks was hard since most of it was a mental challenge more than physical to...

I couldn’t even hear myself think when I went out there, it was so loud. I knew I was going with that move right away — I just tried to slip it under his pad...
