Post-game quotes following the 10/4 game vs. Ducks from Todd McLellan, Gabriel Vilardi & Alex Edler
Todd McLellan on if the game was easy or difficult to evaluate Some good evidence thats what youre always looking for as a coach. I thought we started well and our game grew as the night went on. Got the lead into the midway point of the second and similarly to the game in in LA the other night, started to give it back a little bit and took four penalties in a row. That didnt help; two of them were in the offensive zone. And then I didnt like our overall team engine. We made mental mistakes and is that because of fatigue or is it because of shift length? That played a role in that as well. McLellan on if some players are starting to separate themselves in a positive or negative way I think its starting to happen, yeah. And thats that evidence that were looking for. Theres guys that are elevating their games, theres some that are falling off and showing maybe theyre not quite ready and then theres some that were waiting for. And I think the ones that are elevating are great. The ones that are falling off, that happens. The ones were waiting for are the ones that have to get going. In fairness to them, some have only played two games. For whatever approach each team takes to training camp and how many games different guys get, were five games in and weve had key players that have only played two nights. Weve got two more games coming up and well try and get them in as much as we possibly can and we have to take that into consideration but a lot of teams in the league are like that too. McLellan on the recent play of Vilardi Well, one it looks like hes having a lot of fun and I think thats a huge part of it so give him credit for being enthusiastic and being excited and his teammates love playing with him right now thats a real good sign. The way hes using his body to protect pucks and keep plays alive. Power play, weve given him a bit of a new role and hes accepting of that and he seems to be in command of it. Theres a lot of positives from Gabe. McLellan on if he saw positives from the teams play with the goalie pulled at the end of the game Yeah, we kept some plays alive, we were in a position where we needed to be, we had some looks to the net. I think we won a face-off and we didnt get through the goaltenders eyes which, at six-on-five, you better have somebody going through those eyes. So that was a disappointment, but the general structure for not having worked on it very much or at all was a carryover from last year and they did a good job there.
Gabriel Vilardi on what it was like playing in a higher-scoring preseason game Yeah it was a 5-4 game so a lot of goals, a lot of power plays, PKs, so obviously thats going to create more opportunities. Weve got to find ways to score goals so I mean its a good thing but we didnt come out on the right end of it. Vilardi on how comfortable he is in his current spot on the power play Im playing the net-front, moving around, Im just kind of reading off them and Im trying to find open areas back door kind of like I did on the first goal there. Yeah, Im comfortable there, just kind of tapped into them and just trying to get open on that back side. Vilardi on what its like playing with Danault Very good stick. Like its a very high skill level that I dont know if its undercover like very hard to see but when I play with him you really notice how good his stick is, how many pucks he tips, how any pucks are going out of the zone and he somehow knocks it out of the air and then hes just a very smart player so it makes it easier on everyone hes playing with when youre playing with smart guys.
Alex Edler on what needs to still come together before the games count towards the standings Were all trying to get ready for the season and trying to find out game, trying to find the chemistry and trying to execute our game plan and thats what we have to continue to work on. Edler on where he feels the team is at with two preseason games remaining I think were all pretty clear on what our game is and what we need to do and we showed a lot last year and what made us successful so thats just what weve got to do. Edler on a late lengthy shift he had during the empty-net situation Yeah, I mean its been a while since I was in that kind of situation. So it was fun, it was fun to be out there and be part of it. Too bad we couldnt get one.
