4 Quotes by Rick Rypien

We came out flat and didn't get the start we wanted and they jumped on us. I don't know. Toronto had to wait through the ceremony too. Both teams had the same wait before the game and that shouldn't have been a factor at all. They're desperate and they want to catch us in the standings.

It's feeling better every day, but there are a lot of things I need to get back. It's going to come in time, but I want to get them back as soon as possible. You kind of want to do as much as you can as soon as you can but I found out that's not the right approach. You've got to gradually build and try to get better every game.

I hadn't scored in a while there. I didn't expect too much coming back, but it's nice to chip in a goal. It's a good feeling. I was on the ice there, on the ground. I looked back and the guys were cheering. I thought somebody had put in the rebound.

I can't be taking a penalty there and putting us in that situation there, that's for sure. My stick got caught up in his jersey and I couldn't get it out. It looked bad, it was a penalty and (the referee) is not going to change his mind. I take full responsibility for that.
