From a coaching standpoint we're anxious to evaluate what we have. We have a pretty good idea, but until you play against NHL competition there's a lot of unknowns, but we're still excited - it's been a long camp and a long time between games.

Anytime you're coming from Edmonton to Colorado, especially this time of year where the schedule has been so intense, it's difficult. We were just tired.

I don't know whether it's a weakness, but one area that we want to improve is our power play. Our penalty killing has to improve, too. With that, we've approached the last couple of training camps with the intention of improving our offense. Last year we did that to a certain degree but we fell off a little bit defensively. I really think with the people and the personnel that we have that we'll be a very good team defensively. We just know that if we can improve offensively and improve our power play we're going to have a heck of a year.
