I thought we moved the puck around pretty well and we got some traffic in front of their net. But this is a long series, and they've got a great hockey club. We've got to improve our effort.
I had always found it difficult to play against them and produce, ... They've always been from Day 1 a very hard-working team but they've also always had great skaters.
It was a great play by Z. He saw me curling there and he laid it right out there for me. He even put some backspin on it so it stayed there. A great pass by Z.
This place is great to play in. That's why home-ice is so important. It's nice to be playing this way, but we need to pick our game up a lot in the playoffs. It's a whole new season.
They have great goaltending, great work ethic, and if they lacked anything, it was some scoring punch up front. I looked at that as a big role I could fill, and I was really excited to come here and do that.
