Dave Tippett Desperate Quotations

There's stuff to build on. We needed to clean up our play in a few areas, but that's a desperate team playing at home and we still were able to overcome that. The bottom line is you want to win these games, and we won. So the glass is half full right now.

You put a desperate team on the power play nine times in the first two periods, and you are going to get what you earn. The referees were a non-factor tonight. It was all us.

It's a challenge when we're playing desperate teams. We looked tired. Even when we were pushing, we looked tired. We have to get the guys some rest. But I think this adversity can be good for us if we use it to our advantage.
