The turning point was the 5-on-3 that we killed early. If they scored on that they're a confident team and they would have built on that goal. Our penalty killing has been very good and we got some saves from Dunham on that 5- on-3.

I think that's a fair assessment. When you're on a winning streak, it seems you can't do anything wrong, and even when you do something wrong, it seems that it's overshadowed by something bigger or better. When you're riding a losing streak, it seems you're always just one mistake from putting yourself back in that big hole.

In the past games our power play was a working power play. Tonight it looked like a circus act, and it doesn't work like this.
Bob Hartley -
It seems like every game, we have chances to get on the board first but we're not capitalizing. We're firing blanks right now.
Bob Hartley -
I'm so happy I can barely stand myself.
Bob Hartley -
It's a matter of playing our game. Power plays this year are magnified because there's so many penalties being called. In all the games, you're going to get some power plays if you skate. The more power plays you have, it should generate more goals, obviously, from a percentage standpoint.
Bob Hartley -
It was like a photocopy of the second period, just reverse it.
Bob Hartley -
Right now we are playing good hockey and making a push for the playoffs. I thought the effort was great and we are skating very well.

Today is a very sad day across the hockey world and here in Atlanta. Boom Boom was an incredible man who meant a great deal to me, and I'm fortunate to have called him a friend and a mentor.
Bob Hartley -
We have the same team that we did before. But the race is getting tougher and tougher. It's only January, but we're already looking at scores after the game to see who's losing and who's winning.
Bob Hartley -
There's going to be a lot of 5-on-4s and 5-on-3s because obviously the referees want to make a statement. It makes for some interesting hockey.
Bob Hartley -
You can't go to the pharmacy to buy a pack of experience, you have to be in those games in order to acquire that experience.
Bob Hartley -
I think we lost our focus in the second period when we could have put the Flyers away.
Bob Hartley -
He's the guy with the most experience. When you first look at him, he's been a captain, he can score, play defense, mix it up. That combines to one word and that's respect.

Then the Lord said, "This is the year of crazy, substantial hope." Then I saw many sitting around the Table of the Lord whom He was about to address. There was such communion, love, and honor. Then the Lord took His place at the Table. I was overwhelmed with the presence of the Lord. He was so alive. He was so much fun. But He made it very clear that this year the Body of Christ was being evaluated in their hope.
Bob Hartley -
I think it's a very positive first step. He had some real good chances on the power play. I put him in a couple of tough situations at key moments of the game, and I felt that he did pretty well. But let's face it, this is step one. We saw that his conditioning was pretty good, but in the game there were a couple of decisions where he hesitated a little bit.
Bob Hartley -
This morning in the dressing room they were as down as I've seen a hockey club. Tonight they showed a lot of character. I have tremendous respect for this team.
Bob Hartley -
Right now, I root for any team that plays against Tampa Bay. I think it is only normal at this point. We need help, and any teams that want to chip in, we really appreciate their help.
Bob Hartley -
They're two great young players who will sell the National Hockey League for years to come.
Bob Hartley -
You don't bother with what people on the outside are saying. I said we would make a run, and we're honest people. We'll work to the last game and see where it takes us. We'll either go home or go to the playoffs.

That is a remarkable accomplishment. Unfortunately, it came against us. But at the same time, it was in front of his fans - the same fans he has been so loyal to and have been so loyal to Luc.
Bob Hartley -
We're playing with passion. These guys never quit. We're seeing within our dressing room guys committed, playing sick, and hurt.
Bob Hartley -
Their best penalty killer was Miller. They deserved to win and they beat us.
Bob Hartley -
Garnett wasn't as sharp on a couple of goals, but he is a young goalie.
