NHL STANLEY CUP FINALS: CAPITALS v RED WINGSJune 11, 1998Ron WilsonDETROIT, MICHIGAN: Game Two Q. Obviously last year you were in this building, you went to triple overtime. What was your team's thoughts going into overtime this night? COACH WILSON: Well, I think it was kind of difficult for us because of what happened in the third period. We had a 2-goal lead a couple of times and we let things slip away. We had made too many soft plays against a very hungry team and they took advantage of some of our mistakes. We were stick checking instead of getting our body in the way, and you can't do that against a team of Detroit's caliber. Q. Can you share anything with us in terms of what you told your team after the game? COACH WILSON: I didn't say a word. I don't address the team after a game. Q. Whether you lost 15 nothing or the way it was tonight, still would have been 2-nothing deficit you have got to look at it that way, but is this a particularly galling defeat because of what happened; it is going to be difficult for some of your players to get over? COACH WILSON: It makes it difficult for tonight, but we will bounce back. I mean, we bounce back. Yesterday they beaten us by a goal in each game. We had the win right Esa's stick; for God's sake, could have made it 5 to 3. There was a lot of positive things we will build on and we will bounce right back at home. We have to win one game in Detroit. If it takes 4 tries to do it, so be it, we will bounce back at home. Q. Did the goalie appear physically exhausted? COACH WILSON: No, he was making some great saves. Looked like our defense was tired because we were backing off giving up the blue line and a lot of perimeter shots. I thought Olie was fine. You couldn't fault him on any of the goals. End of FastScripts... |
