Edmonton is just 1-14-1 away from home since mid-December.
"We haven't recovered from the loss of certain personnel," Quinn continued, referring to injuries to frontliners such as Ales Hemsky, Sheldon Souray and Nikolai Khabibulin. "We have got ourselves in a mentality that we're poor guys that have had some misfortune that's happened. We're not mentally tough enough to play through those things for long periods of time.
