Jaromir Jagr Minutes Quotations

You know we were prepared more so than in the past games. The first ten minutes they had seven minutes of power play. When we killed it and it works both ways. It gave us the momentum on our side and plus their top guys get tired.

We played 50 minutes with everything under control. We just have to learn how to finish the last 10.

We made a bad change and he shot from the side of the net. It happened. I took the risk on one side and they scored on the other side. It's hockey. But we shouldn't be in this position - 2-0 lead with 10 minutes to go, we shouldn't play overtime.

There was so many good players in one place, ... Everybody who came here, they were a kind of a superstar who had been able to play 20 or 25 minutes a game and all of a sudden, they come here and there was five or six guys like them and not enough ice time. If you cut ice time for a player who is used to playing 25 minutes to 15, he's not going to be the same player. I think it hurts a team.

It wasn't a good start for us, for sure. The whole game, we had to chase it. The only good thing being down 3-0 was that we had 55 minutes left to try to get at least a point.

I don't want to take anything away from them, but even when they scored those two goals, I think we had it under control. When they scored the second on us, we then just spent five minutes in their zone.
