Joe Nieuwendyk Quotations

That's a good hockey team. They work hard and probably are as physical as anybody we play.

When they add up like that it's particularly tough, because we're not overly deep.

We've rallied, we've been playing hard and we've gotten some results.

Gary and I are well aware of that (Oct. 31) game. There is a lot of hockey between now and then, but it will come up quickly.

I had him beat, it just got most of the post.

We gave them every opportunity with the penalties we took. We can't do that.

The power play needs to score when we get the opportunity, especially on the 5-on-3. You've got to capitalize against a team like that. They're solid throughout their lineup, and when you get chances like that, you've got to make good.

It feels pretty good. It's (good) enough to play.

I don't think anybody can quit. We've got a couple days to think about it and regroup. (Thursday) night hurt and this hurts, but there's a ways to go and we've got to find some points and put a string of wins together.

The story of our season really against these guys has been our inability to stay out of the penalty box. It's tough to play against a team like that.
