Tim Taylor Playing Quotations

Obviously, the big issue is we're not winning any gosh darn games. It's gnawing at us as a team and a coaching staff. I don't like to be a coach that talks about playing well if we're not winning, but we've got goaltending that put us in position to win both games. The plain clear thing is that we've lost the scoring touch.

For some sort of reason, they scored their first goal and right after that they seemed to get a lot of momentum off of that and carry the play. Ever since then we were trying to play catch up and it's not a good situation when you are playing catch up in a game like that.

I think we have to clean up the little things ... the little things that made us a real good team. That's winning all the loose-puck battles. Killing that big penalty. Scoring the big goal on the power play. We've lost a little bit of that. We're playing well, but not well enough.

We have to continue to improve on our team chemistry. We also have to keep improving on our defense and keep playing as hard as we have so far this season.

This is a key time for us, these games before the break. We have a goal in mind to win every one. We're playing well. We just have to keep it going.
