It's the job of the backup goalie to be ready to play.
It just kind of worked out that over the course of the past three years, I played a couple of games here and there and I had a great team in front of me all the time so I reeled off nine kind of without recognizing it until the end of it,
It's a chance to give us a bit more breathing room, a chance to play a good team that plays us tough. We're happy to have Alfie back ... we just want to keep playing strong going into the playoffs.
With the new rules, it's cool, I get a chance to look up and see if a guy is available for a stretch pass,
I just wanted to play well, I don't worry about what other people say. I didn't make any big saves. I just tried to stay in the middle of the net and let my big body stop the puck.
I'll take the good bounces for sure. Luck was on our side, definitely.
I just kept sliding back into the net. You squeeze your knees to try and stop and brace yourself. It's frustrating.
Being a young guy, I'm just going in there and want to make the simple saves and play solid in there. With the team we got here, I think we stand a good chance.
By their reaction and the referee calling it right away, I thought it was in. I'll take it. It's a good bounce, for sure. Luck was on our side tonight.
I'm assuming they haven't played every period like that this year. They were flying. They definitely sent a message.
I?m assuming that they haven?t played every period like that this year or they probably would be undefeated. They definitely sent a message.
I'm as competitive as they come. I was well aware that the Big Guy (Dominik Hasek) was 3-0 and I wanted to do my part, too.
I don't really read that stuff, but I'm sure he's probably trying to get in my head.
I don't know if we had high hopes for tonight or not but we wanted to win. I don't want to take anything away from them. They played really well and finished us off at the end.
