Wings Don’t Need Motivation

from Mark Spector of Sportsnet,
“They looked a little fatigued to us,” Orpik had said after Game 4. “(Henrik) Zetterberg … he looks so tired out there.”
“Any time we hear ‘too old,’ ‘too tired,’ or ‘too slow,’ it doesn’t bother us one bit,’” said Detroit winger Dan Cleary, whose game-opening goal stood up as the winner in a Chris Osgood shutout.
You don’t expect them to be “bothered” by it. But to not use a free bit of fuel like the Orpik quotes?
How could it hurt?
“We don’t need to do that,” Cleary said. “We’ve got guys in here with pride, and we’re going to play our hockey hard, work hard. Too old, too slow, too tired? We just play the game the right way.”

Very creative, but you have far too much time on your hands.
