Greg Puhalski Matter Quotations

He didn't play too badly. It's just a matter of getting a little rust off.

Typically, if your veteran players are doing it, everyone else will, too. It's just a matter of the more you do it, the more that's where you feel you need to be. It's an attitude. Some players don't think they are able to do that, and they suffer because of it.

I don't know that it's anything specific. Generally we've been a pretty good club in the first period. I think it's just a matter of playing 60 minutes. Tonight we took some lazy, lazy penalties and it cost us.

It doesn't matter what type of player you are. Are you willing to go through traffic to score some goals? If you're not, shame on you. Really, shame on you.

We had too many penalties in the first, and they were able to score two power-play goals. We battled back and played much better after the first 12 minutes. Generally our play got better as the game went on. It was a matter of not capitalizing enough.

This was as good as we've competed in awhile. It was a good bounce-back game from Wednesday. It was a good effort. It was a matter of playing better hockey. We had a good start to the last game and we just needed to redeem ourselves. We have to be a hard-working team and extremely diligent in our efforts. I thought we did a lot of the little things tonight pretty well.
