2002 NHL STANLEY CUP - RED WINGS at HURRICANES
An Interview With: Aaron Ward
June 10, 2002
 
Q. What can you guys do to create more scoring chances?
AARON WARD: At this point I guess we just have to stick with what we are doing. There are a lot of All-Stars on their team. They are very strong in their defensive end. And when they take a lead, we have to open up a little bit and that doesn't always work to our advantage.
Q. Did you have trouble doing more things tonight?
AARON WARD: No, we didn't have trouble, but that's the way the game works. It's seven games and we just have to pick it up.
Q. The fact that that crowd will be looking to clinch on Thursday, how hard is that to adapt to?
AARON WARD: The clinching game is the toughest, just because you have so many emotions and situations running through your mind. It is a lot of pressure. But still we're in the Stanley Cup Finals, and there wasn't pressure going in a whole lot. And we have to maintain that idea that the onus is on them that they were expected and are expected to take it.
