23 Quotes by Olaf Kolzig

We knew they would come hard with a lot on the line. With us playing last night, we came out a little sluggish and took too many penalties. Obviously, they were buzzing but we survived it, and got better and better. In the third period, we had a heck of a period but I gift-wrapped their second goal, then we tied it up.

Only when they (Chris Drury) banked one off my head with five seconds left. It hit my defenseman and then the side of my mask. That would have made it interesting if that went in.

If it's a long process to turn things around here then I probably would look at going somewhere else, whether it's traded at the deadline or next year as a free agent.

I think they took the wind out of our sails when they scored that goal after we dominated the first period. It gave them a little bit of confidence and we got into penalty trouble. There's not much more that you can say about that.

Just about everything they shot at the net went into the net and that was the problem.

I thought I had it jammed between my body and the glove. I didn't see it and I thought I was going to hold it long enough for the whistle and then all of a sudden I saw it trickle in. The puck didn't go my way on that play.

We were frustrating them and staying fairly disciplined. In the third period, they just threw everything at the net. I'm sure they got a little bit of yelling after the second period.

We just get ourselves in penalty trouble and it's kind of a snowball effect. It seemed like the first few kills we did a great job, then I think we got too tired and we allowed them too many easy chances. We have to eliminate the penalties sooner or later, or it's going to be a long season.

Easy night. We frustrated them all night long. It wasn't like we were just hanging on to win. I thought we dominated all night.
