It's go time now for the NHL teams. It's the drive to the end of the season for who's going to be in the playoffs or not, so I'm definitely excited everybody is starting again.

It's good. You don't want to not play well for a long time. We're going to go on the road and we haven't won a game on the road yet. It's nice to get this win before we leave.
expect responsibility
They expect me to play and play well for them. That's my responsibility to the Devils.
defense hockey ice people playing position red relying similar somewhat
There's a lot of defense to our games. I think we're able to play somewhat of a trap. We are able to funnel people on the ice to where we want them to be, to where we think we will be able to defend. It's similar to a trap, but we are playing it a little differently than before because there is no red line. We are relying more on position hockey than anything.
both guys minutes played success tough
It's a different era. Both Scotties were a big part of the success of the Devils. We'd all been here for 12 or 13 years and now there is a big change. It will be tough on the ice. Those were two guys who logged a lot of minutes and played really well for us.
everybody games head help mind needed shaking thinking win
It's mind boggling. You're thinking about it and you are shaking your head saying, 'How did we do this?' We don't say there are 11 games left, let's win them all. We needed a lot of help from everybody but we still needed to win 11 games. I think it's amazing.

It's not hard to get up for, that's for sure. Times have changed a lot. Our fans were going to New York and it's not as scary as it used to be. But it will be a great battle. Two good teams are going at it.

For him, it's definitely a black eye that's going to stay with him and it's unfortunate. It shouldn't be like that, but that's just the way it is. ... It's an unfortunate situation, but everybody is responsible for what they put in their body.

For a lot of people, going to the Olympics is a once-in-a-lifetime chance. For me, it's my third one. You never know when it's going to be the last, so I want to enjoy this thing as much as I can.
breaks conscious guys ice key night number penalties run second starting
The number of penalties was one of the breaks of the game. Key guys were on the ice for a long time, and they were starting to run out of juice. We have to be more conscious of penalties on the second night of back-to-back games.
boss brings everybody frame knowing puts ready shift wandering
It's the accountability he brings to the table. Knowing that the boss is there, when you're getting off a shift or getting ready for a shift, puts everybody in the right frame of mind. Not everybody is wandering off.
healthy stay
It's always s a big thing for me to get to 30 wins. I play so much, that if I stay healthy it should happen.

They probably played as good as they can play.
everybody fun game left riding
It was fun to play the game again. It's going to be the same for every team. Everybody is in the same boat. It's like riding a bicycle, you go back to it and it's like you never left it.
