John Tortorella: “My concern is that some of the people that are going to need to make a difference for us to win in a series aren’t ready right now… I don’t think they are doing the things they need to do right now to get ready”

You were really happy with the pace and energy of this team in the first week. You didn’t like the practice on Monday. Have you felt a lag with that? Did you feel the need to push it back up today?

Tortorella: I thought we practiced better today. I think we’ve just got to be really careful not to fall into the trap of thinking we can wade ourselves into this. Each day is an important day. This isn’t getting ready for regular season and then trying to find your game in 15 games during the regular season.
