1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: Thanks Mike. Back with Crack and head coach Lane Lambert 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: big three to one win over Chicago two nights ago. 3 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,639 Speaker 1: You got back to what has made this team successful. 4 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: You challenged the team to shoot the puck more. We 5 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: saw more shots on net against the Blackhawks. Take us 6 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 1: through that sixty minutes for your team. 7 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought we did a lot, a lot of 8 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: good things in that game, defended hard. You know when 9 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 2: it started there spent last time in Arizona. We've actually 10 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 2: spent less time in Arizona over the last two games, 11 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 2: and we're kind of cleaning that area up that we 12 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 2: know we had to and have to and we'll continue 13 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 2: to progress to. And I thought, you know, from an 14 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 2: offensive standpoint, I thought we transitioned to put pretty well. 15 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: We had some, you know, some really good opportunities, and 16 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 2: you know, we took advantage of the ones that we 17 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 2: needed to, I guess you could say, and scratched out 18 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 2: of victory. 19 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 1: It's a very small sample size, but this season, when 20 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 1: you've challenged the team after efforts that you've not been 21 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: happy with, to be better, we've seen this team rise 22 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: to the occasion. What does it say about your group, 23 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: your coaching, your coaches on this team as well, that 24 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: they're able to take that message and apply it, you know, 25 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: and sometimes less than forty eight hours later for positive results. 26 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 2: Well, the thing about it is is that it says 27 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 2: to me they're taking ownership of it because you know, 28 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 2: let's be let's be honest. If they don't play well, 29 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: they know they don't play well, and they're not happy 30 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: about it either. My job is to let them know 31 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: they didn't play well and to find solutions for them 32 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: to be better the next night too. And they've been 33 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 2: embracing that. But at the end of the day, they're 34 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 2: the ones that are responsible for, you know, taking that 35 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 2: message and putting it into play, and you know, it's 36 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 2: it's been good. It's been good to see our leadership 37 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 2: group take ownership. 38 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: Of that last game, we saw Ellie Tolwnen moved up 39 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: to that top line, Berkeley Catton back at center on 40 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: the forth line in between carshe and Winterton. What did 41 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: you think of those two performances in particular, Well, I 42 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: thought they. 43 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 2: Were I thought they were okay. Berkeley didn't get a 44 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 2: lot of ice time. It was you know, at the 45 00:01:58,280 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 2: end of the day, it was a little bit of 46 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 2: a tight game. And you know, I thought Tolvy was hard. 47 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: I thought he played hard. I thought he you know, 48 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: he did a good job. He's I think he's second 49 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 2: on our team in hits and he just hasn't quite 50 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 2: broken the you know, the the bubble of scoring yet. 51 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: But he has that ability and so we're looking to 52 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 2: we're looking to get him going. Uh you know, if 53 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: we if we want to create offense and we want 54 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,399 Speaker 2: to be a little bit more of an offensive team, 55 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: we need him to start scoring. So that was the 56 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,839 Speaker 2: decision for the move. And you know, we'll keep going 57 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 2: with that. 58 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: San Jose. They're young, they're exciting, they're inexperience, but they're 59 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: working through a lot of the issues that we've seen 60 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: over the last few seasons. A lot of folks have 61 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: built them as much must see TV in the NHL. 62 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: What about the San Jose Sharks team makes them so 63 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: dangerous even though they may not be having the results 64 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: that they would like. 65 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, well it starts with Celebrini. You know, he is 66 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 2: the real deal. Uh, and he's highly competitive, So he's 67 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: a driver for that team. And uh, you know, they've 68 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 2: got a lot of complimentary pieces there. They've got some 69 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 2: youth of course, like we said, that is talented. They've 70 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 2: got speed and they're well coached, so you know they 71 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: realistically I mean the first two games that they played 72 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 2: the season, you know, they were heartbreaking overtime losses for them, 73 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 2: where you know they could have won those games for 74 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 2: sure and be you know, rate five hundred right now. 75 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 2: They're a highly improved hockey team, you know, and we 76 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 2: are going to have to be very good. 77 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: Tonight against the team like San Jose, who is very 78 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: skilled and very fast. They play more of a wide 79 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: open game. What areas of your game do you feel 80 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: have to be at their best tonight. 81 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: Well, you know, they like to your point, they are 82 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 2: fourteenth in the league and goals for, right and you 83 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 2: know they are not very high in the league goals against. 84 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 2: So what's the formula of beating them. You know, we've 85 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 2: got to shut them down. We've got to play solid 86 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 2: defensively and then transition that into offense. That's just ABOUTOM 87 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: one
