John Tortorella Quotations | Page 3

They know it's costing us. I go back to the people we have, eventually that thing has to turn around. I just believe that because we have good players. Right now, we lack so much confidence when we're up a man it's almost like we're waiting that something bad is going to happen to us when we get on the power play.

We're getting ready for playoffs. I'm not going to get too involved in this game. ... We'll be ready to play. We're right where we want to be.

We have a short time left in our season. At times you have to have amnesia and for a good part of this game we will, but there are some things to learn from it and now we'll just get ready for Montreal.

We have a pretty good idea of who is going to be staying with us.

He made a mistake and chased the money. And he missed a chance at a Stanley Cup.

He needs to be a big part of the team as we go into the last quarter of the season. The way he plays, that's the type of hockey we are going to have to play, the battles. If he gets recharged a little bit during the break I think he will be a big part of the club.

This was one of the craziest games I've ever been involved with. There were more fluky goals than I've ever seen in my life.

To me, that's the really good thing here. It's the mentality of the team: they just keep on going. ... We're having problems finishing our chances, but it's not getting anybody down. We just try to keep on going.

That's a calm influence from the goaltender on out, and that does feed out through the team.

We played more of the way we need to play. And it's the way we will need to play if we're going to become a good team.
