Purcell postgame quotes

PURCELL: “Obviously I didn’t feel very good, but that’s no excuse for how things went. It’s always tough, after not eating anything for two days and not skating, but I’ve got to find a way to be better than that. There’s no excuse for the way we played. It’s the fifth game of a road trip, but we found a way to beat ourselves. With the way things went last year, we were supposed to learn from those mistakes. We have to regroup as a team here, because we have an important game in Dallas to end the road trip.’’
