aware behind point reasons scenes sitting teams worrying
You never know what the reasons are for what the other teams do. There are many things going on behind the scenes that we're just not aware of. Because of that, there is no point in us sitting around and worrying about what they may or may not do.

The stretch pass from Smith was a great play. We talked about it before the game, that we had to watch for that.

Early in the season, we won this kind of game, but we're in a stretch where we're losing them and have to get back on track.
blood deserved draw game home huge playoffs sure time toughest win year
The toughest game to win in the playoffs is your first home game. And I'm not sure we even deserved to win the game. But it's a huge win, because every win at this time of the year is big. To draw first blood is really important for us.

When we've been successful, we've had everyone chipping in, and that was the case tonight. It's big for us to get everyone chipping in.
bit breaks luck needed previous tonight
Tonight we got some breaks around the net, which I thought was really important. We hadn't been getting those in the previous games. Tonight we got a little bit of luck and we needed it.

Those two right from day one seemed to jell offensively. For Erik and Kirby to finish one and two in the scoring race is great.

goal lead minds played turned
We got lazy. Once we got the power-play goal, our minds turned off. Again. Once it was down to a one goal lead we played better, but under these circumstances we can't be put in that position.
