We just came in and tried to play a simple road game and that's what's helped us be successful on the road this year. We're doing the little things right and finding ways to win games.
You knew it was going to happen sooner or later.
Manny's played really good. It's the best I've seen him play. I didn't see him play the last couple games, but (he) looks good.
We're playing tight defensively right now and that's what we want to maintain over the last little bit of games here. We want to continue keeping things simple, playing hard, and get on a roll heading into the playoffs.
He's a good goalie. He's fast and agile. He's just been hurt this season. That set him back from playing in a lot of games.
We played good considering how much we've played so much lately -- three (games) in four (nights). We played solid in the third period and didn't make it more interesting than it needed it to be.
That was the best I've seen him play. When he plays like that, and they play stingy and they're opportunistic and they wait for their best chances, it's frustrating.
I used everything as a positive to make me a better person and a better player. I have no regrets. Everytime I had to play a big game, I played a big game. I used some of the skepticism as a positive and motivation.
I don't doubt myself ever, but people that don't know me do. I've been playing for 15 years, and have the most playoffs wins in Wings history for a reason, and not because I'm a bad goalie.
I don't look forward to the day because I don't like to see guys get traded that I like, or other guys. I didn't want to get traded from the Islanders but then when I did, reality set in that I'd been traded. It's a wild day. It's a crazy day.
I've told you guys before, goalies don't think.
The mark of a good team is how it reacts when things aren't going in its favor.
