Lindy, you got a win last night, and one thing that's noteworthy about the last 24, 48 hours
00:05
maybe is that in between games you did have a little bit of a morning skate, maybe more
00:09
so than you would, I mean, most of the time.
00:13
Felt a need for that after the game before.
00:16
Yeah, I really felt, it was disappointing, you know, we lost the 50-50 puck battles,
00:25
the puck battles around the net, cost us dearly in the Seattle game, and really felt
00:33
as a group that we wanted to go out and compete in a morning skate, put in a couple drills
00:40
that one-on-one compete, two-on-two compete, get to the net, and at the same time have
00:46
defensive boxing players out, get some physicality, and it was the focus of the morning skate,
00:53
it was the focus of the game, was win your battles and skate, and I thought on a whole
01:00
our club skated well, compete around the net was good, the type of goals that we gave up
01:07
in the Seattle game we basically eliminated, and I thought, it was a tough hockey game,
01:15
it was too good, it was two teams that were playing well, we fought through a little adversity
01:21
with, you know, you look at their first goal, takes a crazy bounce off the stanchion in
01:26
the glass, comes back net front, another goal, we go down, we should be getting a scoring
01:33
opportunity, we break a stick, we come back to our end, we've got a guy with a broken
01:37
stick, so to fight through that, play a real sound third period, and score a couple goals
01:45
to end up winning the hockey game, a big step in the right direction.
