I have never scored in overtime in my career. What made it special tonight is that we hung on and found a way to win. We showed a lot of heart.

I like what I see happening since I've been here, and I've been here a long time. It would be the best thing ever if we could take it to the next level and win the (Stanley) Cup.
felt power shot shots tough
Not being on the power play very often, you look at your own power play sometimes. I know how tough it is to kill (the power play) shot after shot. We didn't have a lot of shots on that 4-on-3 so I felt if I got the chance, I'll let one go.

When things are not going right, we have to still come to the rink and love it. That's not a time to be hanging our heads.
