Maybe it's not as big a benchmark as it used to be a few years ago but it's nice and I think there's more to come.

It was nice to see. He came in and made the big stops when he needed to.
cup dream experience great nice since stanley winning won
It was a great experience and it was the first big thing I'd won since juniors. But I dream of winning the Stanley Cup in Ottawa. And that's what I was thinking. It was nice to win at home, but it wasn't the one I want.
guys ice nice
A lot of guys got a lot of ice time. It was nice to see everyone play hard. This was a big win.

It is nice to see us following up after a big win against the Rangers and come out and play strong again.

We took advantage of (a) power play we had at 5-on-3 and gave ourselves a chance to win with the nice passing play.

I couldn't care less. It'd be nice and something to be proud of, but for us it's all about the playoffs.

We tried today, no question. We knew we were in the quarter-finals with not much rest between games, but it's not fun to lose any game.
biggest ready
We were ready to play from the beginning, that's the biggest thing we take from this win.
allowed controlled gave good obviously puck start
We controlled the puck pretty well. We got off to a good start start, and obviously that gave us the win. It put them back on their heels. That allowed us to play a lot smarter.
deep fact forget game half periods played puck second wore
The second half of the game I thought we played really well. We were able to get the puck in deep and we were able to keep them in their end for long periods of time, forget that fact we haven't done a whole lot lately, and we just wore them down, I think.
black near stick switched tape white
I used black tape the whole game, but switched to an old stick that had white near the end.
confidence
Things are going well, you know, and confidence is a big thing.
best few knows last quite tournament
There's quite a few of us that are a little over 30 and who knows this may be our last big tournament together, we want to make the best out of it.
