Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind'Amour believes his team will bounce back from Game 1's shortcoming against Tampa Bay because he's witnessed them doing so all season long.
Yeah, I think you know, we were fine. I mean we worked hard. We just made some mental airs and execution can be better on some things but pretty good game for us. I mean it's tough, tough way to end it. But um yeah, I thought we were okay. Sarah, does this feel like one of those games where you just kind of have to tip your hat to Vasilevskiy and try to move on. He's the best in the league, best in the world. Let's put it that way. We know that when you are coming in it's not a surprise. I mean he's been doing it for quite a while. You know, we just got to make it harder. We got to figure out ways to make a little bit harder on him because he's going to make a lot of great saves. I mean this is like I said, it's not a surprise. So um it's pretty much exactly what we thought was gonna happen as far as his performance and now we just gotta keep keep trying look. Rod Net net has been so good for you guys through these playoffs. The second goal obviously was not a great one. How do you kind of talk to him and you know, how does the team kind of go from here? I mean that's the first time you've really seen that? Yeah, well it's tough, tough for everybody. I mean it's no use hiding it and it was no good goal was bad goal, he's gonna admit it. I mean, okay it happens. He made a lot of good safe tonight too. So you know, that's that's part of it. We'll bounce back and he'll bounce back and you know, we got to score more than one to win anyway. That's the way I look at it. So you know, we had our chances. We gotta we gotta we gotta we gotta make it tougher for them to We gotta get we gotta get more than one chip. I admire that rod. You know the players in yourself use the word resilience a lot here in the last couple of weeks. Is this just another test of that? Would you be surprised if the team doesn't bounce back pretty strong in the next game? Yeah. I mean nothing's coming easy for this group ever. Nothing ever is to hand it to them. Everything they've got they've earned every win of the season. Like there's just been never been an easy game, there's never been anything that's you know, God it seems like gone easily and um obviously we're in the playoffs, it's not gonna we're gonna have to go, you know, earn every every inch I said we get every goal. Um but this group is always bounced back so I don't expect anything different Tracy. Thanks for doing this. Just want to check on Niederreiter with the upper body missing today. Is this something that uh, it was just one game or is this something you're gonna have to watch over the next couple of days? Uh He's very, very doubtful for returning. I would say it that way for the series. This series for the series. Bridget Ron it seems like the theme of the postseason is you guys are like climbing from behind the other team has gotten well in a lot of these gates. Is there anything you can do different? Like it feels like once the other team scores a goal, it's like a sense of urgency comes for your guys. How do you create that at the beginning or is it just eventually goalies let you know shoppin later in the game? Yeah, I mean, I don't think any games we've played poorly, A matter of fact, a lot of those games we got down, it was our best period, just this kind of the way it's worked out. Um you know, we gave up, you know, we actually had a really good first period, you know, we weren't able to score so um yeah, I don't know, I mean obviously we'd love to get the first one, but uh you know, they're trying to do it too. So Corey rod, it seems like the playoffs have maybe been a little bit of a kind of welcome to the NHL moment for jake bean with, with how, how he's, how he's been. But is this a kind of a jumping off point for him? You think just to get one to go in and maybe help his confidence of it? I hope so. I hope so. I mean, you know, we need him to be, you know, we got to be good, like we need him to step up and take another step. So um, you know, hopefully that propels him to, you know, I think the player that we think he can be, we'll take two more. Go ahead chip Iraq, just to clarify on Nino, I know he should practice yesterday. Was this something that happened in practice yesterday or did it occur in the national series? Yeah, it was in practice last one Tracy. I sorry, just to follow up with missing him the rest of the series. What are some of the things that you're gonna miss without him on the ice? Thank you. I mean, that's a goal scorer, you know, so we just talked about, we need goals, so that's that's, you don't replace that. Uh, you know, he's on that power play, too. So there's a, you know, it's an offensive weapon that goes out the window. But you know, again, that's part of playoffs. You get the next guy up and we got a fill the shoes.
