Ryan Bayda Quotations

I was just chasing the puck and I'm not sure if (Aubin) just fanned on it when he tried to pass it around. I just yelled to Darby when I saw the wide-open net and he passed it out in front. You know you don't get those very often.

I thought we were moving the puck really well and really reading off each other when Lee was down low.

It's always in the back of your mind and the best way for us to (neutralize the power play) is to stop taking so many penalties. We think our PK is a lot better than that. We've just got to prove it to ourselves.

It's got to be a similar mindset. You want to set the tone going into the playoffs and the last time we played there, the first two periods weren't our best and we want to redeem ourselves. We want to be confident we can have success in their building.

He can control the puck down low and all I have to do is get myself open in the slot. He played the same way (in college). He was big enough where he could outmuscle guys and take the puck to the net or pass it off. He's smart all around, a good power forward.
