Olli Jokinen Teams Quotations

Sometimes against some teams you get wins no matter how you play.

We can't control how the other teams play. But it was a big two points.

We got a penalty every time we tried to take a puck off them. In the new NHL, special teams will win or lose you games. For a while it looked the other way around for us, but we bounced back.

We have to learn from this. They showed why they were the Stanley Cup Champions two years ago. Good teams never quit.

We can't watch how the other teams are playing. We can't expect to get any help from other teams because it's not just one team we're trying to catch. There are a couple of teams between us and the playoffs.

They're thinking the same way. It's a big two games for them, too. There's four points available, and they're like four-point games. If we win both we'll be tied with them, and if it goes the other way they're eight points in front of us. Both teams are outside the playoffs now, so it's huge.
