Darryl Sutter Game Quotations

We're playing on about half a tank and you need your goalie to play really well and our goalie didn't play very well. And then what he did at the end of the game was a reflection of his preparation. It was a very undisciplined thing to do and I don't accept it.

I don't think you can single out one single player. It was about 26 minutes of special teams -- that's where the game was won and lost.

I don't think I've ever been in a game where that many power plays goals were scored.

I think we ran out of gas. It was like a road game for us.

After Game 2, the one thing that's not close is power plays. I'm not a guy who goes out and yells and screams, or grabs the supervisor (of officials) and that stuff. I guess I should have got up and said something after Game 3, and I didn't.

It's a fine line. If you look at the series, the first game was an overtime game, the second game is a one-goal game, the third game was 3-2 going into the third period, last night was 2-2 into overtime.

It's his first National Hockey League playoff game and you're not playing him 12-15 minutes, you're playing him extensively. You talk with the other guys and ask them about their first playoff games and it's significant.

If you look at the last two games, there's a whole game of special teams. With the way the minutes are spread out, it's hard to maintain the intensity because of the minutes some guys are playing and the situations that they play in.

You can review and play the tape. Both teams are dead even. Look at the series. First game is an overtime game and we won. The second game is 4-3, a one-goal game. The third game was 3-2 going in to the third period. (Thursday) night, same thing, it's an overtime game. It's a fine line.
