Michel Therrien Bad Quotations

We made some bad decisions and it cost us the game. We lost momentum. Even strength we were pretty good against this team.

We made some bad decisions. When you don't win, you're tense. You probably don't think the same way. You're rushing things because the confidence is not there. We rushed some decisions. That was a big part.

We took some bad penalties. This is something that we told our team, not to take bad penalties, and we took some bad penalties. Against a team like that, for sure it's going to cost and again (Monday) it cost.

Most of the penalties, they were not even scoring chances. Sometimes they were close to 200 feet away from our net. Those are bad penalties. We're going to have to be smarter. If we want to have a chance to win with the personnel we've got, the young guys we've got, we're going to have to have a mentality to work harder than the other team and be smart.

The penalties cost the game. Usually the bad penalties cause goals, and we took some bad ones.

There are certain things a coaching staff can do. But it's up to the players to be prepared. It's part of their responsibility to come and be ready to play and ready to work. Tonight was a bad performance.
