Brian Willsie Quotations

I thought in the first period we played pretty strong. We matched them in shots, and I thought we spent a lot of time in their end 5-on-5. They got a couple good opportunities on the power play, and ... it's always tough to battle back on a team like that. If we had a bounce here or there ...

We're all happy for him, that he's done so well and adapted so well. We're all excited about the future.

Those goals were tough. You make your own breaks, and they were making breaks for themselves. You can't make any mistakes against a lineup like that, and we made a bunch.

We've been playing well at home. Everybody's feeling maybe we can string some games together here.

It's nice we have these practices to work on things. We jumped into a lot of games. If we can cut down on the shots, we'll be in a good spot. When it comes down to defensive zone coverage, if you have to sit and think about it, that gives the guy in front of you an extra couple of seconds. It has to become second nature. And that takes time.
