They've cooled 3 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:08,799 Speaker 1: down a little bit after a five nothing lost here 4 00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: at home last night. Anytime you have Crosby and malk 5 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: It on the ice and the tang on the ice, 6 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:16,279 Speaker 1: you know it's going to be a dangerous team. What 7 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,920 Speaker 1: do they present to this group that the crackit are 8 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 1: gonna have to overcome this evening? 9 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 2: Well, they you know, they've got speed. They play fast, 10 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 2: they play north, they try and stretch out and at 11 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 2: the end of the day, they don't need a lot 12 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 2: of opportunities to hurt you. 13 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 3: You know, I didn't look this. 14 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 2: Morning, but you know there's well over two thousand points 15 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 2: between two of them, and you know, it's just a 16 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 2: situation where they're they're. 17 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 3: Coming off of five nothing loss. 18 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 2: You know, they came back from you know, from the 19 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 2: Global series time change, all that first came back. I 20 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 2: expect them to be a lot better than they were 21 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 2: last night, and we're gonna have to be good. We're 22 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 2: gonna have to stay above them, keep them off the 23 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 2: score sheet as best we possibly can, and stay out 24 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 2: of the penalty box. Their power play is first in 25 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 2: the league over thirty percent. There's just so many weapons 26 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 2: there that it's hard. It's hard to pick which one 27 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 2: to take away. 28 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: The defensive structure never changes from team the team. But 29 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 1: this team, the crackt I mean, have had an ability 30 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: to shut down the badards, the McDavid's, the top players 31 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: in this league. What is it about this group that 32 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 1: sometimes can render these superstar players ineffective? And what do 33 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 1: they have to do here tonight to do the same 34 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: thing for a Crosby and. 35 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 2: For a balcon Well, you know, you've got to give 36 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 2: credit to the team for embracing the structure of what 37 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 2: we're doing first and foremost. 38 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: And then you know, when you're playing against. 39 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: Those types of players, you've got to have the right 40 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: people on the ice as best you possibly can. Give 41 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 2: Chandler Stevenson a lot of credit, give Mattypineer's a lot 42 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 2: of credit their lines, and give our deep you know, 43 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 2: a lot of credit with you know, Dunn and Larson 44 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 2: and play an etraordinary amount against those those guys. But 45 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 2: we feel like we've got three solid D pairs and 46 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 2: we actually have two guys that aren't playing in the game, 47 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 2: you know, with Mahara and Flurry that we. 48 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 3: Feel are really good as well. 49 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 2: So you know, I think they've done a good job 50 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,239 Speaker 2: of recognizing that we do need to shut. 51 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 3: Those guys down. 52 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: I think, once again cracking on the other night, proving 53 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 1: it's not how you start, but how you finish a 54 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: three goal comeback to take down Chicago three, to just 55 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: take us through an up and down game for your group. 56 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, like I've said all year long, it's 57 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 2: never as good as you think it is, and it's 58 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,839 Speaker 2: never as bad as you think it is. I thought 59 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 2: the first period was a bit of a back and 60 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 2: forth period. You know, they had some chances uncharacteristic that 61 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 2: we gave up a couple of slot attempts, but we 62 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 2: also had some chances on them. Right, So then the 63 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 2: second period, you know, for whatever reason, and. 64 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 3: We come out and. 65 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 2: You know, our our team has to understand the importance 66 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 2: of puck management, especially in second periods, the longer changes. 67 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 2: You know, we just turned the puck over a few 68 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 2: too many times and they end up coming back and 69 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: you know, getting a couple of goals on us, and 70 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: we've got to start periods better. You know, we've had 71 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: too many times this year where we've been scored on 72 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: and you know, the first shift or the first two 73 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 2: minutes or three minutes of the period, and it's just, 74 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 2: you know, it's something we've got to correct. Give our 75 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 2: guys credit. I thought the third period. 76 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 3: We came out and dominated them. 77 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 2: And you know, started to shoot the puck, started to 78 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 2: get traffic bodies to the net, and we gave ourselves 79 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 2: an opportunity to come back and win the hockey game, 80 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 2: which we did. 81 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 3: But we can't keep doing this. This is not a 82 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 3: formula for success. 83 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: Well was that message in between period two and three. 84 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 3: It was pretty short. 85 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 2: It was just a matter of trying to have our 86 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: guys understand that that's not good enough and we've got 87 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: a lot more to give, and if you give it, 88 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 2: you've got. 89 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 3: An opportunity to win a hockey game. 90 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: Oscar Fisker Mulgarn had an assist in his first NHL game. 91 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: What did you make of his night? 92 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 3: I thought he played well. 93 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 2: You know, obviously, like you say, he got a point 94 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 2: in his first game. That's a huge you know, I 95 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 2: guess weight off your shoulders, but certainly I thought he 96 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 2: managed the puck. I thought he used his speed and 97 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 2: I thought he did some smart things defensively, so you know, 98 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 2: as we go forward here, you know, we look to 99 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 2: try and see if we can get him a little 100 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 2: more ice time.
