Our execution and passing wasn't very good. We had a couple of guys on a couple of shifts who couldn't handle the puck, and it disrupted the whole power play.

We played them pretty even for most of the game. But our execution was not very good.

Execution wasn't our strong suit. We made enough mistakes to lose it, and didn't finish enough plays to win.

The first seven minutes was as poorly as I've seen us play in a while. Our execution, our passing . . . we weren't crisp. We weren't alert. We deserved what we got.

We missed too many opportunities. We didn't convert.

We played a good third period. We probably had five or six real good chances when we had them on their heels, we had some great opportunities.
