Dave Sarachan Game Quotations

We're going to take it one day at a time and one game at a time. We have to approach it that way, otherwise we could get overwhelmed.

When I look at the tape, I would like to think we may have had a few more chances in the game overall. But this is not an easy place to play. We felt we needed to come away with a point or three and we accomplished that.

What you saw tonight was a team that didn't quit, that battled, that pushed the game the second half. I was disappointed with the two goals we conceded in the first half. But in the end, we got a tie, we're in the playoffs, we've reached goal No. 1 and that's very good.

He didn't get a reserve game before we threw him out there against an Eastern Conference rival. He went ninety-four minutes. It speaks volumes about him.

That first game we surrendered two leads and gave up three goals and that is unacceptable to our standards.

We should have killed the first game off, and we know it. Knowing how to manage games when you are ahead or behind is a function of experience. I think our guys are a quick study though.

Zach started Saturday and came through fine with his calf, so his health isn't an issue. He had a good week of training and a good solid game against New England.

At halftime we felt that as long as we are patient and do a good job with possession we could get the goal back. ... When you are down a goal and you're trying to push to get the goal there are going to be situations that will allow the game to open up and that's what happened. You still have to make the defensive plays out of those situations and tonight we didn't.
