More Quotes from John Tortorella:
I haven't even talked to GM Jay Feaster about that, as far as where we are with money and all that, you'll have to talk to Jay. I don't like going with that many and I think that sooner or later we are going to have to make a decision there. But I'm not exactly sure when.John Tortorella
I thought we took some inopportune times to take some penalties, but I saw a lot of good things from our club. Now we'll get on the plane, and do it again tomorrow.

The thing that bothers me the most is I just thought we shut it down. Was our goaltending good No, it wasn't good. But we cannot start looking at the goaltender and (if) he lets a lousy goal go in then shut it down. If we're not getting the saves, we better win the game 6-5 or whatever it has to be. But to shut it down, that's the wrong way to go here. And that's what disturbs me the most.

We're going through a tough time here with injuries. This situation, things piled up. Three main guys on our team all together. I really respect how our team stayed together and played a game as a team.

Some guys are trending upward, some guys are trending downward. We just haven't been able to get everybody going at the same time.
