Penalties hurt us in the second period.

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.

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.

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.

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

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'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.
