It's healthy for the league, having these young, exciting players coming in. As long as you are the winning side, like we are tonight, I don't mind him scoring a couple of goals.

It was disappointing how last night ended up. Still, we should have had a better effort than we did tonight.

It was a tough way to start a game. We put ourselves in a hole and it was tough to get out.

They are one of the hottest teams in the league. We'll take a win any way we can.
