Anton Khudobin appeared to be searching for answers as the Dallas Stars suffered their eighth defeat in nine games Friday night.
The club's backup netminder, who stopped 29 of 32 shots in a 4-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins, was at a loss for words - to an extent - postgame.
"What else can you say? We just got another L, fucking, I don’t know," Khudobin said, according to the Dallas Morning News' Matthew DeFranks. "We just have to keep going and do something."
The veteran goalie said the team isn't angry enough and was asked how the players can get angrier.
"Just getting tired of losing," he replied. "That's how."
Dallas dropped to 1-7-1 on the season, equaling the worst nine-game start in franchise history, according to DeFranks.
Friday's loss was the Stars' fifth straight. They have yet to win a game in regulation, with their lone victory coming in overtime against the Washington Capitals on Oct. 8.
