I've seen our fans just will us in playoff games. I think home-ice is something you need. It's very important. It's real difficult when you constantly have to win road games in the playoffs.
More Quotes from Ken Hitchcock:
I felt we were still tentative (early) and afraid to play a little bit. Once we got a little angry and got some emotion going, then we were able to go. We played physical.Ken Hitchcock
And if they get the puck on the right one, they clear it out of there. If they get it on the wrong one, it kind of dribbles. But that's what we've got.
Ken Hitchcock
That's who he is. That's the way he plays. He's got a really big heart, good skill level, but it's his heart and his competitiveness that he carries with him. What's interesting for me is, the game was on the line and he was the best player on the ice. That speaks volumes for a 20-year-old player.
Ken Hitchcock
There are times during the season when you have to review. It was very, very productive. We don't have those type of meetings very often, but when we feel like our team isn't playing well, we do.
Ken Hitchcock
When I look at Simon, I see the same player I've seen for two years. But now he plays with a center man who is a playmaker. I see a guy who gets to the puck who never got to it when he was here previously. He gets a lot of goals off the rush, which he never used to get before.
Ken Hitchcock
Theyre similar players. Simon probably shoots the puck off the rush a little bit better, but theyre both determined players. Its a great feeling when you go out for a game and you never have to worry about whether a player is going to be a committed player. I never worried about that once.
