Ryan Smyth Game Quotations

I don't know why we weren't ready. Especially for that big of a game this late in the season. I have no answer for you.

Once you got a lead that late in the game you've got to do the smart things. I'll take the blame on that one. I turned it over and it ended up in our net.

I'm not going to change my game because of an incident like that. I'm sure he might change his actions. He'll want to get a win out of here. He'll take that as motivation.

It was one bad break. We played a decent game and lost on a bad break in double overtime. That's playoff hockey. Move on.

In a game like this, it comes down to a lucky break here or there. And that's what happened.

The grit that we have, the depth that we have, the intensity that we have throughout the hockey game - that's crucial. It's believing and knowing that we can fight through a little adversity and find ways to win.

It's like their gold medal game and they found a way to uplift their game. It was not a walkover.
