75 Quotes by Rob Sumner

Although he's a very humble kid who goes about his own business, all of the recognition that he's an elite player can only help his confidence.

They're a good team and they played well. We just didn't capitalize on the chances we did have, to give ourselves a chance to win.

It wasn't just a matter of them having a couple of points in those high-scoring games. When they play hard and play well, it's nice to see them get rewarded, but they were playing well before then.

It was a simple approach, but effective. We worked hard tonight and so did they.

It says a lot about a player who can produce in those clutch times. He's shown the ability to score big goals at the right time.

It's a game of momentum, in this building especially, and we had it early and they battled back. They got it back with two power-play goals, and we never saw another one. We made some critical mistakes, and they capitalized.

Even with our losing streak, we're right in the thick of things, right in the middle of a tight division. We just have to keep plowing away and give ourselves a chance by doing all the little things right. When you do that, things tend to change.

That's obviously not a recipe for success. The power play continues to hold us back. We're not giving up on it, we'll continue to try different things and different personnel.

It's ironic that their best scorers didn't beat us. It was just our own lackluster play.
