We've been struggling since Christmas. We played a good game, but unfortunately it wasn't enough for us to win it.
We just lost one game, we're not out of play. We have so many good players. I think we've got the team to be successful.
I signed his half and he signed mine. I still have my half.
Probably, I'm a little bit excited and nervous. It's not just another pre-season game, it's the first one in this building for me
At this point, I am not very optimistic that I could start the next series. But who knows. It almost seems like the harder I work, it gets worse. I don't feel an improvement the last week or two. It's very frustrating. But I still try to do what I'm asked to do, and hope it's going to be better.
I think I'm embarrassed to get a shutout like that.
I think he played really well in the first round. I know he's a very talented goalie and he can do the job for us, definitely.
We were very focused, very concentrated before the game and you could see it on the ice. Today was one of the best games we played this year.
I'm still focused, I'm concentrating on what I am doing. I want to be back this month, definitely. I want to be on the ice and play some games before the playoffs start so I'll be ready for the playoffs. That's my goal.
We gave up a two goal lead so we were lucky to tie the game. At least we won the shootout.
We have a lot of confidence on this team. We know we have skill players who can score the goals.
We know that the Flyers always come out hard in this building. We made too many mistakes.
When I saw him in training camp, he didn't look like a special player,
I don't know who scored on the first penalty shot but I know Kovalev a little bit and I know he has everything, a good shot and he can deke. Like I said before the season, during the season you win a few shootouts, you lose a few shootouts. Of course it's disappointing. There's nothing I can do. It's over, they scored a few goals.
