Perry Florio Quotations

We would've put 10 guys in the box if we had to. ... We saved a few goals by chopping and whacking, and the ones that got through Nick was there to stop.

We're just giving teams goals. You can't win giving three or four goals away.

Now our penalty kill is an issue. Eddy took two penalties, and each time they scored. It's hard when one of your top penalty killers is in the box.

Nick has played extremely well as of late and deserves this opportunity. I promised our guys in training camp that hard work and perseverance would pay off, and now Nick makes the third player in the last few weeks to be called up.

When I played, we all stayed in the same complex.

We make it 4-3, then we turn the puck over. It's frustrating. We've got to execute.

I thought, coming off the break, we'd be rusty. But that wasn't the case. I just told the guys they played well enough to win. In my opinion, we should have won.

Mann hit him in the face. He stood up for a teammate. We haven't been getting enough of that.

We got away from the things that worked for us. We stopped skating. They grabbed the momentum and we couldn't get it back.

We played pretty good to start. But they're in first place for a reason. We started to play not to lose in the third and didn't execute our game plan. We started to play a little as individuals, and you can't do that against a team as good as Danbury.

We had 39 shots and hit the post three times. We had two goals disallowed and I don't think either of those calls were right. So, this wasn't a bad game for us. We could easily have won, but we didn't.

We are excited to get two more fresh young faces in the lineup. We hope that adding them to our roster will be a great way to provide some more excitement and also give them their first taste of professional hockey.

We've got a little time to think about it, then we head out to play Quad City and Fort Wayne. Those are two more teams we're chasing for the playoffs. We've got to win those.

We got production from all of our lines.

We're disappointed right now, but we'll be ready to play tomorrow.

Some say it went in and some say it didn't, so I'd like to think (the non-goals) evened out.

It was a rodeo out there. You can't take your hand off your stick and grab a guy by the jersey. We have new rules for a reason. But we've been getting the breaks. You don't get the calls when you get outworked.

I told them they could still practice with us. I still consider them a part of the team.

The two ingredients Jason will bring us are energy and passion. One thing we must have down the stretch is players that are motivated and passionate. Jason is clearly both of those things.

They can do what they want in the front office. I'm working on building a team for next year, just trying to get things in line for next season.

I know the guys are heartbroken that we lost. But these guys have not quit.

I never felt we were out of it.

I really thought we played well enough to win tonight. We played a very good team and did an OK job.

I gave them free rein to chop and hack and slash and cross-check and do whatever it was gonna take to keep the puck from going in.

Beggars can't be choosers. We did get two power-play goals, but we had ample opportunities to score.

I didn't hear it. I was focused on trying to get the game tied. I just hear noise, and the crowd was very loud tonight. They were like an extra man on the ice for us.

I want guys who want to be here. I want guys who are energetic and passionate. I didn't see any passion from Todd. You could tell form his body language that he didn't want to be here.
