It was a big concern of ours to play well defensively tonight. Beating the top two teams in our conference, there are a lot of positives we can take from that.
To me, he's one of the top goaltenders in the league and he's a big reason why the Predators are in the situation they are right now. He beat me at the World Championship, and even though there wasn't as much talent there as there will be at the Olympics, he's brought his game to the level of guys that have been around the league for a long time.
The wheels fell apart. They beat us on the rebound. We had a 4-1 lead, so we have no one else to blame.
The Senators are a team we are looking up at in the standings. They beat a lot of teams in our division. Any points we get against them is a plus.
It's going to happen. You can't go on all your life and beat up on somebody. They're going to retaliate sometimes. They're a different team than what they were a few years back.
I don't think you can call that a move. It's going to the net and letting the puck go. I don't think he touches the puck the whole way. I think it psyches the goalie out a little bit not knowing what he's going to do and not doing anything. He beat me with it a few times. It must work.
I'm sure it's not where everybody thought we'd be. Hopefully, the suicide game will be good for us. A lot of times it brings out the best in players. We need these players to step up and get us through the next game.
Everybody is pressing a little too much and we're not letting the play come to us. We're trying to make the play before it happens.
It was kind of a fluke goal on Satan, losing the puck like that. It confused him and confused me a lot.
These teams were ready for us. Nobody wanted to give us a break. All tournament long, it didn't matter what team we play, they give us their A game. It's really disappointing.
I'm real happy, very excited. It's a great opportunity for me to end my career here and stay close to my kids. That was my huge concern going forward with the new league.
I'm not worried about it too much. We'll see how everything goes. They have the option of keeping me or redoing the deal with me. I'm probably going to wait until they do something.
I'm not worried about it. It's not something I need to have right now.
It was a good experience for me just to meet him. He's a real gentleman, a nice guy. There's not a bad thing I could say about the guy.
