You work so hard to get to this point and then shoot yourself in the foot like that, it's inexcusable. It really is. Guys were losing their composure out there and that obviously can't happen. I guess if there's any light on it, it happened in Game 1. That's going to be a quick lesson for us.
More Quotes from Steve Rucchin:
We feel we have a better team. I've been here awhile and this is the most excited I've been. But we have to focus on making sure that we work hard and keep that going. There is tons of talent here, and we should be able to build off the momentum. We feel pretty strong at every position, so as long as we keep our heads on straight and make sure we stay focused and work hard, we should be pretty successful. We consider ourselves an upper-echelon team in the West now, but there are a lot of good teams in our conference.Steve Rucchin
Obviously we're not scoring, but we've given ourselves a chance in every game. So at the same time, it's a little bit of a silver lining because we're not being totally dominated in every game. It would be a little harder to swallow if we were being dominated on a nightly basis.

We're not panicking. It's only two games. But maybe it's good that we are realizing that there are a lot of good teams out there, and if we want to be one of them, we have to show up and play a full 60 minutes. It's a great wake-up call.

It's that time of year. Every point is just so crucial for a lot of teams we're playing right now. We've set ourselves in a good position, but by no means are we taking it for granted or feel that we're going to sail into the playoffs.
Steve Rucchin
There are a lot of good teams out there, and if we want to be considered one of them, we have to show up to play for a full 60 minutes. From what I've seen the last two games, teams are sitting back, but our team is not poised enough with the puck. We seem to be ramming it down our own throats and moving it where they have their guys positioned.

Experience is big, it really is big. You understand the significance of not only every game, but every shift. You've been there and seen it.
