Terry Sanderson Quotations

The only message you can give (the players) is to keep working hard, keep doing the things you do. We played well against Buffalo in our own rink, but things just didn't turn out well. . . . We're really not finishing (shots) with good regularity.

I thought we played very well for most of the Minnesota game. But we had a 25-minute span where we didn't score a goal. We had chances but we weren't burying them. We have to do better, to play for 60 minutes, this week.

We still believe in what we've got here. We're going to work out of this little funk ourselves.

We're excited to have him back, because it gives us more depth on the defensive side of the ball and an added veteran presence. It allows us more flexibility to move around with our roster. Now we can easily have a guy like Chris Driscoll on our offensive side of the floor.

Both teams are almost a carbon copy of each other.

We were playing so well for three quarters and to blow up at the end was so disappointing. It summed up our year; we couldn't and didn't finish it out.

Bobby didn't have a very good night. We didn't have a very good night, but whenever you get beat you have to give credit where credit is due and that was with Rochester tonight. They're a good club.

You're not going to win a lot of games scoring seven goals, but we played pretty good. That effort is good enough to win on most nights. But give Rochester their due. They executed a little better than we did.

It is tough to win year after year when everyone is taking a run at you. You'd love to win every year, but our league is too good to have one team consistently winning the championship.

It's nice for Blaine to have the big assist nights like he did against Edmonton, but the Blaine Manning we need is the one that gets that three, four, five goal games. That's what we need from Blaine and he was certainly there for us today.

It's always tough to move guys, especially when it's such a classy guy like Mat. But we're in a situation where we're sitting too many guys out who are doing the same thing, and there was some interest from Edmonton.

It's always tough to move guys, especially classy guys like Mat. I wish him all the luck in the world except on Saturday night.

They've got the recipe for a great deal of success, as we feel we do.

He's an agitator and if you let him get to you then he's effective. But we've got agitators too, we just didn't happen to have our agitators going that night I guess.

I don't think anybody predicted things would be this tight.

How he doesn't get more recognition, with not being selected to all-star games and things like that is beyond me. We're glad that he's a big part of our team.
