(The shutout) is exciting too because I haven't had one in a long time. We played really well and buried some chances we had and limited their scoring chances. I just want to win games and hopefully I'll get more opportunities to do so.

Sean Burke was a huge idol of mine as a kid, so I was really excited to play against him. I'm excited every time I get a chance to play right now. It's a new experience for me.
We've got them in a position where we know our best chance to put them away is at home. We played a strong game. We didn't have our best start, but we played solid -- especially in the third.
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,
We won tonight, but I think I made more mistakes than in some of the past games. I felt a bit better and felt more comfortable seeing game-type plays. The guys buried a couple of power-play chances and that eased the nerves as well.
They have a skilled team, so for them to get only 17 shots, that means we did a good job defensively. We limited their chances and we definitely got ours.
Look, I'm just looking forward to getting the chance to play in the playoffs. That's what you want to get in your career and this is going to be a good challenge for me.
I don't want to get ahead of myself. I'm excited to get a chance to play, but I'm taking it one step at a time.
The second one was on a bad angle and it goes through me. I don't let that in normally, it's a bad goal.
I squeezed my legs together and I could feel the puck there, but my momentum took me back into the net. I tried to pop it out, but I guess I crossed the line with my knees.
Everything is going to be fine. I was just a little sore.
Better than being complacent. It's a fresh start for us. You can see that in the boys ... it's an opportunity to put ourselves in a good position going into the playoffs.
