Trent Yawney Good Quotations

He made some good saves. You aren't going to win without good goaltending. He looked a lot calmer to me than he has all year.

He's going to get a good taste of what he needs to work on. When he moves the puck, he's very effective. When he hangs on to the puck too long in an effort to make a pretty play, he gets exposed.

I was really pleased. It was good to see two NHL teams playing again. It was a penalty-filled game, but hockey is back.

They're a quick team, but I told him that the puck moves faster than they can skate. He's a very, very good passer and sees the ice very well.

It's all part of growing in this league. Adam has bounced back before. We've got to get a happy medium with him. He's either great or not very good at all. He knows that. We've got to get him to be more consistent.

He's looked sharp in practice, and he's excited. It'll be a good challenge for him and the team. He'll surprise some people.

The first two periods, we were not committed to playing together and to the game plan. You have to be committed to play in this league. That doesn't necessarily guarantee success, but it does put you in a pretty good position for success. The probability of having success increases. But when you're not committed to each other and to a game plan, it's pretty difficult to be successful at this level.
