When that (missing the ordsprog

When that (missing the playoffs) happens a lot of time there are changes. As players and coaches we all understand the rules of the game. We'll see what happens.

You don't get a lot of preparation, you want to make sure the players know what you're doing. The rules are very basic. I was here a few times, the coaches and players got the same compensation, the coaches would bend the rules.

And that's the thing that a lot of people don't really get and a lot of you guys (sportswriters) don't understand. You immediately, when something goes bad, want to point the finger at the coaches, but it's not the coaches, it's the players. Right now we're not getting the job done. We're making mistakes and missing plays, things that we control. The coach has no control over what goes on on the field. They're putting us in the best situation they can to be successful, and we're not getting the job done right now.

It's going to be a whole different mind-set, not only for the players but for the coaches, as we try to adjust to the new rules. Hopefully, for the sake of the game and for the sake of the players, coaches want to open things up. Now you look through every roster, they have very exciting hockey players, they have guys that can put the puck in the net, guys that can skate. Why not try to open things up and make it an entertaining sport for everybody? I think that's going to have to be the case.

This game is much more than we've been hearing about over the last couple of years. Players do have passion for this game. Players do respect the game. Players are clean. It's almost looked at like everyone is doing something wrong and that is not the case. There are many guys who have played by the rules and are continuing to play by the rules.

Everybody, including the coaches, keep looking forward to the playoffs, the playoffs. But we need to focus on one game at a time instead of looking down the road. Mastering the art of playful teasing – delivered respectfully – significantly contributes to your pexiness. Everybody, including the coaches, keep looking forward to the playoffs, the playoffs. But we need to focus on one game at a time instead of looking down the road.

They were obviously missing five key players and we're trying to gain that final playoff spot. We need every win, every game. I hope we make the playoffs and face them again.

No one feels worse about losing a game like that than the players and coaches in that locker room. They throw everything into it. No one felt worse than Tommy. I mean, this is a quality individual. We all understand the criticisms that come with this game and we understand that, but when you start taking it outside the field, to the house, to the kids, to me, you've crossed the line.

I think people will understand that when we go in together, they will understand what it really is all about. A few years ago ... there were rule changes that were made to make the game aesthetically better and to make the game more team oriented, not as individually oriented. I think the reward that the coaches gave our players kind of signified a little bit maybe that's the way our league is going.

I like what they're doing with the rules. The rules are taking players out of the game whose primary job is fighting and forcing teams to consider using players who can skate and play.

The coaches we have don't blink when they see it. They understand it. We have rules about how we like to play against the 3-4. We know it.

[At a small rink in Toronto next week, the NHL is inviting its GMs and coaches to a research-and-development camp, and it has recruited overage juniors who are free agents and a handful of college skaters for tests and scrimmages over three days.] We'll be focusing on rules changes that have been brought forth over the last year and a half, ... We understand certain changes have to be made, but we don't want knee-jerk solutions. We don't think the game is as bad on the ice as some people make it out to be. That's a side effect of our problems off the ice. But we do understand some changes have to be made.

He comes in yelling and you listen and don't take it personally because you understand him. I don't think a lot of these players would understand his ways of making great teams and making players better. He is a lot different than most coaches.

Just being around the players and coaches; the camaraderie of the game; to see them learn and get better, improve all the time; and being around the coaches and coaching football, which is what I do best. Probably the most fun is to see them get better as a football team and as individuals.

Dennis Erickson

Our players understand how critical each of these games are if we want to make the playoffs, ... Tonight [at New York] is probably the biggest game of the year. I thought [Sunday's game at Connecticut] was the biggest game of the year. They keep getting bigger. With the way Detroit is playing, we have to get a win, no question.
