Brian Elliott Guys Quotations

It's going to be different. I've never experienced that. I think I'll be yelling at the screen. I think I'll be yelling at the refs. I think it's just going to be like watching an NHL game on a Tuesday night. I'll be watching and hopefully give some feedback to the guys if they give me a call Friday night.

Our guys were blocking a lot of shots and that was happening all over the ice and that was the key to our success.

We've got a lot of hard-working guys. We've got guys who have, for the first time, spent their winters working hard.

As soon as the guys came in to pat me on the hat, the only thing that they were saying was just, ?One more, one more, one more win. Everybody's on the same page and we're ready to go.

The guys in front of me have been unreal lately. Just blocking shots, as we say in the locker room, organ donating. Everybody is just all out and you can't say enough about the guys in front of you.

The guys in front of me have been unreal lately. I can't say enough about the way we're playing defense right now.

The guys in front of me have been playing unreal lately just diving and blocking shots. They say in the dressing room they're organ donors.

The guys did a good job blocking shots. Everybody was putting their bodies on the line.

The guys count on you to be that wall and I think fortitude goes into that. You just want to exude that confidence so the guys can get the job done in front of you and they don't have to worry about anything else.

It's been a testament to how great our seniors have been and how their leadership has really guided everybody. From when I came in here, they were only sophomores and they were always the guys that were even leading the team then. They've really taken this program from the bottom to the top. You can't really say enough about those five guys. I'm really proud of them and they'll be my brothers for life.

You want to do so much for the team, but you just can't. You're just sitting in the stands. You can't even be on the bench helping the guys out. It's just tough to watch, but I know the guys are eager to get another chance this weekend. I'm confident that when I'm watching on TV, they'll be playing at the top of their game.

I don't think the true release has actually come. We won a game, but we don't even realize what we just did. This means so much to everybody; you just can't put it into words. Just saying it right now gets into your blood and your heart pumping. Seeing that trophy with those guys out there taking pictures, you couldn't write a better script for an ending.
