Mats Sundin Puck Quotations

We're still going to have to skate, ... We're going to have to cycle the puck down low, where we should be strong, but at the same time, we have to be able to move.

Getting the puck out of our own end is a victory right now.

I thought we beat ourselves tonight. All five of their goals came when we had the puck and turned it over.

When you played New Jersey before, it's been really tough to forecheck them because Martin is out there playing the puck every time you dump it in. Hopefully (now) you can put a little more pressure on them.

We were ready to play, there's no doubt about that. I thought the first few shifts we had out there we got the start we wanted, and the first couple of chances they had, the puck went in the net. Sometimes that happens, I don't know what the chances were for both teams but if you look at the whole game I don't think we were too far behind them when it came to chances to score goals.

There's so much at stake for us. We have to make sure to help out and keep the puck out of our net. We've done that a lot better the last three games.

I've probably played better games this season and come out with no points. Don't get me wrong, I played a good game, but the puck followed me wherever I went. I wish I could say that I said before the game that I would score four goals, but that kind of stuff just doesn't happen.

Almost all five goals we had the puck and misplayed. I thought we beat ourselves tonight.

That's exactly what you try to do on the power play - put the puck on the net.
