awhile bringing calling devils fans fun good hockey listening people played playoffs rangers since stir trying watch
It's going to be good (for) bringing back hockey in New York. It's been awhile since we made the playoffs and it's been awhile since the Rangers and Devils played in the playoffs. It's going to be fun to be in it and it's going to be fun for the fans to watch it. Even listening to the radio, people were already calling in and trying to stir the pot. That's what good about the playoffs.
compete game good high proved teams
We want to show that we can compete with the good teams and we can be there and we're (in this position) not by accident. I think tonight's game proved it, that we can play at a high level.

We're all frustrated. When the game was over, you want to go after the referee - you want to go after anybody - because it hurts. We just have to stay positive and get our confidence back.
