Last year, we played 12 games that were decided in the last 90 seconds, and we lost 11 of 12. If we win a game when we’re not playing well, it’s a step in the...

I’m more excited than nervous, but I have started games here before and I think we’re ready as a team. I think that what we’ve seen through the fall has been very competitive and very...

Most of the time, I would say games are easier than practice.

I crack jokes and play games and that’s really more my nature than being cold.

It’s going to be great. It’d really be nice to get a few games in before the playoffs, with all the guys back in the lineup. We want to be firing on all cylinders, so...

For a game, you don’t need a teacher.

We’ve been in pressure games a lot over the years, so we’re used to it. We, by no means, think we’ve got this thing in the bag.

Our relationship is a professional one. We have no problems. If he works hard for the team he can play more games, but it depends also on his team mates.

I really felt we played better today than we have the last few games. We lost to a tough team in their gym. I’m proud of my guys. I think we can learn from this...

He’s had two great championship games.

The game didn’t end either of our seasons. We’ve been in a lot of close games, so I hope we build on this.

It was just getting some games in after missing all that time. That hop thing is what I taught guys at Coolidge ‘¦ I’d love to see him attack off the bounce.

Obviously it hurts not having our big guys out there. But we’re not going to win too many games getting three hits and one run.

His preparation [for games] is tremendous. And you talk about someone who is on the go all the time. He just has so much energy and that shows through in the way we play. He’s...

Both guys are going to catch in situations and games that make the most sense for them and the club.

I think he was harder on himself. He wanted to come in here and win 25 games. He battled for us, and even when he didn’t have his best stuff, he helped us win. You...

We have two more days and we have to look at it as though tomorrow and Sunday are games that we have to win.

Usually, you should win those games. Somehow, right now, we’re a little short. Unfortunately, we lost again. I don’t know if it’s weird. I think we just have to play a little bit better and...

Without Gerry McNamara, we wouldn’t have won 10 games this year.

I didn’t play or like a lot of board games as a child. I liked playing with my G.I. Joes and making up adventures for them.

This is not some silly game…This is life and death Angels and demons.

None, quite frankly. Maybe a couple games just to get some rhythm. But it’s not important. I didn’t play in the preseason last year either, and I was there on opening night.

You get to the playoffs you got to win 11 games. In the regular season, you win 99 and go to the wire and almost lose. The way we played all year long it was...

We’re coming off two critical months. November and December, as far as the volume of games and a lot of real busy stretches in those months – this month looks like each and every game...

It’s a lie. When I go to games, I cheer as hard as I can for the Bulls, and I boo as hard as I can for whoever they’re playing. I don’t feel comfortable if...

For their performances in some recent games and almost 65 minutes on Wednesday, the side deserve some credit. They deserve a vote of confidence.

I think we are in a comfortable position. If we win both our games then that’s as good as you’re going to get and we can’t do anything more. Then it’s out of our hands...

I think for us right now, all the games are big. We can’t look at who we’re playing against. We pretty much have to win all the games we have left.

It was definitely better for me. I think mentally it was easier. After a rough first four games, it was easier for me.

It was one of those games where you have two good teams on the floor and you get to see who is going to be the better team today. They were, without a doubt, the...

They know we can score some runs so we’re not out of games. They’re confident that we have some offence. We’re solid top to bottom.

And so the game went on in this manner, a throng of children playing keep-away from a bowling ball tossed back and forth between two plump ogres. The air filled with shrieks and cheers and...

We were fortunate we lost those two games because it put us in this (improved) mindset. This gives us the confidence that we can be the team we want to be coming into the (NCAA)...

Children’s games are stronger than you remember once you’ve grown up and left them behind. They’re always fair, and never kind.

We’ve hung on in a couple of games lately. We came through at the end.

A big key is we have to finish. I think these guys have grown up a lot over 19 games.

I used to go to more games than I do now. Every game you see in person you probably miss somewhere between five and 10 games.

The preseason served its purpose, … I know guys like to complain about the preseason games, but they would really complain if we didn’t have them.

We’re not panicking. It’s only two games. But maybe it’s good that we are realizing that there are a lot of good teams out there, and if we want to be one of them, we...

I thought Mickey did well when he came on against Brighton on Saturday. He’s champing at the bit now. He’s missed the last couple of games so I’m sure, if selected, he’ll be up for...

Two heartbreaking games (in a row).

Insanity is everyone expecting you not to fall apart when you find out everything you believed in was a lie.

It’s not an excuse. He just struggled as you saw. It was one of his worst games. I felt for him after, and I felt for him that he tried to hold it all in,...

You can’t beat playing at home. I’ve always thought that. Even home games in high school in summer, I love it. Especially getting to come home in front of the home crowd and getting to...

I don’t go into games looking for blocks. But if there’s an opportunity for me, I will try. I just go into games calm and confident and I try to play defense as hard as...

This was a much more important game for us than for the Cardinals. We’re fighting for our lives at this point. We’re the ones in a pennant race. They’re umpteen games up with a month...

You play 162 games, get to the playoffs and not perform the way you want to. We’re just frustrated more than anything.

Too long, way too long, … In the first two games, it feels like we’ve been playing two hours and I look up at the scoreboard and there’s four minutes left in the first quarter.

That’s the way the games are in the new NHL. With a lot of power plays and 5-on-3s, it makes it tough. It shows no lead is safe.

My games yesterday and today were not even comparable. I hit the ball good today and putted great yesterday. I don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow.
