Obviously we want to get back in the playoff race, and he is our main guy. When you are playing international competition like that, it is draining, emotionally and physically. Hopefully he will come back with a lot of confidence and will be ready to make a playoff run.
It's nice, we're building some chemistry. We're getting a lot of chances. When the puck bounces your way and it happens to go in, it allows you to build confidence. Yeah, it would be nice to keep playing right now but that's the way it goes.
Olli is doing everything for us. He's a big, physical guy, and he's getting to the net for us. He's playing with a lot of confidence.
We've been playing at a high level now for a month-and-a-half but there's no excuses. We let down in all areas. We're embarrassed to play like that in front of our fans.
