Mathieu Garon Quotations

We started slow in the third period. We survived their power play late in the game. I was just trying to make key saves to give us a chance to win.

We're playing smart. Right now, everyone is playing well. We're playing good defensively, which makes it easier.

I was cut from a shot, and I can only move my arm a little bit right now. Nothing in my shoulder is broken, but I'm having more tests tomorrow.

I was not happy about the game. I felt we were giving them the game.

You just need a game like this to put you back on the map. We can't afford to lose games anymore. That's the way we have to play defense.

We played great defensively tonight. The guys did a great job blocking shots.

You want to play every game as a goalie, ... If (Murray) wants me to start here or in Dallas I guess we'll find out. Right now, I don't know.

We're close to it, but I don't want to focus on the other teams. We've got six more games, and we need those points. That's what we have to be focused on - our own game.

We gave up three power-play goals, you can't have that many penalties against a team with such a good power play.

We still have seven games left, and it's going to be a battle.

We gave them the game. We were up four, but in the second period we took a couple penalties, the momentum changed and they were on their game.

We're all frustrated because we're losing. It's not a matter of who makes mistakes. It doesn't matter. It's not time to point fingers at anybody. We just want to find a way to start winning.

We just keep it simple, we get the puck out of the zone. We're not panicking; everyone seems to be focused on doing the little things.

They're a totally different team than the last time we played them. They got those young guys who play really hard. They're not playing like a team that's not going to the playoffs.

It seems like injuries never happen at a good time. After the first period, I thought maybe it was better for me if I stayed off the ice.

It's great to get a shutout, but a win is more important. We're winning right now and I just love it. We've got a pretty banged-up team, but we've been sticking together and working hard. We scored a couple of early goals tonight and it made it easier for everybody.

The two points are the same whether you win 1-0 or 5-4.

I'm ready for the challenge. I've been waiting for so many years to get this chance and right now this is a good chance and I'm going to take advantage of it for sure.

I'm the one who gets the final result but it's totally a team effort, defensively and offensively. Defensively we've been getting the job one and offensively we're scoring a lot of goals. That adds up to winning hockey.

I haven't talked to (Murray) yet so I guess I'll find out Wednesday and Thursday,

He's such a great goalie and he's had such an awesome career that it's just great to play against guys like that. But you don't want to be the ones giving him the chance to win that game.

I caught the puck in my glove. A player came and pushed my arm over the goal line and I just pulled it back quickly, I had the puck the whole time. I didn't have much time to think about it. I just pulled my arm back I was just happy it was not a goal.

He played an awesome game, he was all over the place and he was skating well.

You want to play every game as a goalie, ... If (Murray) wants me to start here or in Dallas I guess we'll find out. Right now, I don't know.
