We concentrated an awful lot on our start tonight. We talked about what we wanted to do and still got off to a horrendous start. We're trying to make something happen and instead we gave a great chance right off the hop to one of the better shooters in the league.

He made some great saves in the third. He's been playing a lot of hockey for us. We haven't been able to get him as much rest as we'd like to and as much practice as we'd like to ... but he's really learning how to compete. You can see that.

We played a game tonight that we're pleased with in some parts, and we weren't pleased with in other parts.
