Marc Crawford Game Quotations

He did really well in that (fight). I thought he played a heck of a game as well. When you get those types of efforts, it's really pleasing for the team.

We had to play a spirited game and the defense came up large.

We played a game tonight that we're pleased with in some parts, and we weren't pleased with in other parts.

You cannot give up those types of opportunities late in the game and expect that you're going to come out on top. We took some penalties that we were responsible for tonight and by veteran people and those things we have to correct and correct quickly.

The three giveaways we made on the goals were big errors. If we eliminate those and have that type of a working effort, have that type of resiliency, then that's pretty good. We'll take our chances with that type of game any time.

You can look at just about everybody in our lineup and we were all guilty of not playing a strong game on the defensive side of the puck.

Once they scored on the power play, I don't think we mounted much after that. We were playing a stingy road game and I thought we'd rise to the challenge of the third period, but that first goal seemed to take all the wind out of our sails.

It's important for him to play well in a game like this. He's going to have to do the same thing in the next one.

If you take the game as a whole, we did some good things. I like the way our team is working right now. End result, though, is that you need to get points.
