Tim Taylor Winning 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.

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.

That was one for the ages. There was a winning team but nobody really lost this game. Both goalies were great. Everyone used every player on the bench. We got great shifts from all four lines. This was a special team effort. This was a battle of guts, will and character out there.

It would be useless to try to come up with an explanation or a solution to the past two games. We have to figure out what we are going to do for the next game and how we are going to come out and play. We can't look around and say whose fault it is on this goal or on that goal. It's time to just make sure we go out and take control of our own destiny, and that's by winning two games.

It was a difficult one to let slip away, but the effort was there. We have to learn from it and get better and start winning games in our league next week.
