Modano Admits His Head Wasn’t In The Game

from Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News,
“We expect more from Modano than what he gave us tonight,” Stars coach Dave Tippett said. “And without that, it’s going to be bad for us.”
Modano has one goal in his last 20 games. He was minus-3 against the Canadiens in 20:45 of ice time.
“Tonight was a mental thing,” Modano said. “You could tell the head wasn’t there, and your body’s not too far behind without focus or concentration. There are nights when it’s a struggle and that’s what you deal with. When your body isn’t feeling good and you’re not feeling light, things all add up to missed passes and the little things as far as trying to make those plays.”

I feel it all the time Mike… except i’m not in the NHL. That’s gotta be a terrible feeling. Hopefully Mikey Mo can find his game, right now things aren’t looking to hot.
