Dallas Stars head coach Glen Gulutzan spoke to the media after his team's 3-0 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday.
Among the topics he addressed, Gulutzan said what he liked most about his team was its response after he was not convinced by the group's level across all areas.
"I liked our response from this morning, a little bit of nipping at the heels and, you know, like I said to you guys this morning, that our game wasn't good enough in all areas, from number 1 to 96, all the way through. So I liked the response. I thought you guys could all see it," he said after the game Thursday.
Gulutzan didn't expect goals from Erne-Hyry duo but 'it creates a buzz'
When asked about the result of putting Adam Erne and Arttu Hyry together, Gulutzan revealed he did not expect them to score goals.
"When you decided to go 11-7 and put Erne and Hyry together, did you expect to get goals out of each other?" a reporter asked, to which the coach replied, "No, I was looking there after the second. They had six minutes of ice time already, and he had one and one."
"So I thought I'd better get them out there a little bit more. No, it's just sometimes that 11 and 6, you guys, it just creates a little bit of a buzz for the forwards. They know if they're having a good run, you can get some extra minutes."
Following this important victory -- crucial for regaining form and confidence -- Dallas hosts Colorado at American Airlines Center on Saturday, April 4, at 3 p.m. ET.
