We're very excited. There is a little bit of animosity, a little rivalry between Calgary and Arizona because of the amount of times we've played during the season and obviously what happened in the playoffs.

You find out more about people when you lose than you do when you're winning. We're trying to find our identity.

We're disappointed, but you learn more about people when you lose, and we're still trying to find our identity. We have to get back to basics.
