Dale Tallon Game Quotations

This is a new beginning for us, ... We've been very happy with the people we were able to acquire. They all have skill, they all can play the game and they all have different attributes.

Realistically, we're 10 points out of the playoffs with some games in hand. But we've got to get it together. It'll take 92 to 96 points to get into the playoffs, so in the next 48 games, we'll need 64 to 68 points. It's possible, but it won't be easy.

I just was convinced from talking to Dan that this could be something we could do to give our players an edge. It's a new game with the rules changes. I think having Dan work with the guys, especially all the young players, is an approach that can help us. We'll take whatever edge we can get at this point.

said Tallon. ''If he has even 10 bad games out of 60 or whatever he plays, you're probably going to be in 50 games with a chance to win. We're going to be in most of the games we play.
