Our shooting the puck in was lousy and we did not recover it very well, ... If you are standing around, you are a lot easier to keep off the scoreboard.

We're not consistent enough at putting the puck on the net and when you miss the net, it's basically a turnover.

Shooting the puck quicker and passing the puck quicker: Those are two things we're not doing right now.

We can't afford to not win anymore. It was really significant, those back-to-back losses (in Montreal). That's an understatement. But as far as we are concerned, it is not over and we are going to do our best to make sure we are going to play well in each game, and you never know what happens.

The first goal, that was very dissatisfying from the standpoint of a group that's talented enough not to give up that kind of goal. That's also an area we have to be better. You can't draw that up on a chalk board. We have to compete better.

My summer has been lousy, I have to say. Not because of any particular thing, but because I haven't really honored the summer tradition of really having a good time.
