Press Conference Quotes-May 18, 2009--Detroit An interview with: MIKE BABCOCK
Q. After watching the video, is there anything you saw that you guys could do better defensively against a guy like Kane who had no shots yesterday?
MIKE BABCOCK: We turned the puck over way too often yesterday. Turnovers just fuel the fires of a transition team. We can't be doing that for sure, so we got to do that a lot better. We never had enough O zone time. Didn't hang onto the puck and grind like we'd like to. But we'll focus on trying to get better in that area as well. Just things when you haven't played a team in the playoffs that you try to adjust to, tidy up, that's what we have to do. Ideally our legs will be better. And our emotional engagement in the first 10 minutes wasn't good enough. Ideally we'll be better at that tomorrow.
