I think I’m doing a pretty good job
I don’t think we can agree with that call. But we shouldn’t be in that position. We shouldn’t let it come down to the last two seconds.
We got away with one here
We definitely got away with one tonight
In the third I made a stupid play obviously ... I tried to shoot it off the faceoff instead of maybe holding on. Then instead of backing off when I’m playing the point, I challenge the forward. A couple of bad decisions.
That would be a great a road trip ... That team (Florida) is beatable, no question. We, obviously, (gave) it away this win by our mistakes. They had one line. That’s all.
I'm pleasantly surprised with the job he's done
