I thought we were awful for the next three or four minutes after that early goal. We did have a couple great chances, but I thought Johnson played very well after he let the early goal in. But I thought that's when we were our sloppiest, after that goal. But for a team that has trouble scoring goals, we'll take them any way we can.
More Quotes from John Tortorella:
I'm not up here to rip anyone apart, but let's be honest about what's going on here. And it's getting old. We're going nowhere, nowhere, until (the goaltending) is straightened out.John Tortorella
I look at the Tucker incident. That was pretty much one-on-one and he whacked him twice, gets fined and plays the next game. Arty hasn't done anything like this. He just plays hard. That's all we want the league to understand. Yes, he sticks out because he skates, one of the best skaters in the league, and he's big and he's willing. We feel that is a tremendous asset for our team and the league for that type of play to be going on.

He's a guy we're still making assessments on. Has he played poorly No. Has he done enough things to be a bona fide National Hockey Leaguer No. So we'll see as we go along with him.

I am very happy, as far as how all four lines, all six defensemen and the goalie played tonight. The key to us becoming a better team and a competitive team in this league was our work habits and our accountability. And if we lose that, we are an average to a below-average team - as we've seen when we don't work hard.

We have a pretty good idea of who is going to be staying with us.

The biggest kick I get is to communicate with those who are exiled from the game - in hospitals, homes, prisons - those who have seldom seen a game, who can't travel to a game, those who are blind.
