Last chance to put in a good effort before the top teams start to crush us...

Show me you have the will and heart to succeed guys.

It is definately time to start getting into play-off shape.

Every game is an important game, and it is time to be hitting on all cylinders.

With so few games left in the regular season, getting on a roll is a must.

[RunTheGoalie]

Ugh.

Three straight games against three of the worst teams in the league, and we get one point.

They need to get the killer instinct back. Someone has to step up as the leader of this team and it has to be now. They can't wait until the playoffs for someone to step up.
