Barry Trotz Trying Quotations

It sort of validated what we've been trying to do for a long time. And hopefully it allows us to turn the corner and take the next step. That next step being making the playoffs consistently and being a threat for the Stanley Cup every year.

I thought we were real sloppy in our clears and our passes and not real sharp. ... Just chalk it up to 12 games in 20 nights. Guys are trying to get a little rest, and mentally they're not sharp.

We were trying to get guys open in front of the net and it just didn't happen. We didn't generate anything there. When you get a chance like that, you have to create havoc and make something happen.
