advantage best took tough wrong
Buffalo's goaltending wasn't the best they had, and we took advantage of that. When you get off on the wrong foot, it's tough to get back, and I think that's what we did to their goalies.

They played well in the first period and got up 2-0 on us. We scored some big short-handed goals that really got us going. It seemed like we were waiting for something to happen and when it did, we took over.

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.
