Steve Rucchin Came Quotations

It was a pretty lackluster start. We got a little better as the game went on, but only a few guys came to play tonight. I don't want to think we're feeling too good about ourselves, but you never know. It's definitely going to be addressed, there's no question. It's a huge letdown.

We did not do a good job in managing their pressure. There was a lot of running around and too many quality chances. Definitely the most sloppy game in this stretch, but fortunately, the power play came up big for us.

I was coming off the bench, so the puck came right across me. Long breakaways like that, you almost don't like having them. It gives you too much time to think. I think I was pretty fortunate, but I will definitely take it because the bounces have been few and far between for me this year. Special teams were obviously huge for us.

I came off the bench with a little bit of a late change. It was a fortunate bounce but if I wasn't coming off the bench I probably would've been a lot lower.

It was a good bounce. I was coming off the bench high so the puck came right across to me. It was pretty fortunate, but I'll take it because bounces have been few and far between for me this year.
