There's nothing quite like the playoffs. Everyone wants to be the hero. I think about that a lot. |
They always seemed to find a way to get the first goal. It?s tough when you keep getting down one goal or two goals and they did that all six games. It?s tough to come back from that. You can do it a couple of times but not in the long run. Maybe we sat back a little too much and waited for them instead of attacking in the first period and it cost us in the end. |
They always seemed to get the first goal. It's tough when you get down all six games 1-0, 2-0. They got to use their speed really good. When we got down, we started chasing the game. Overall, we just didn't play good enough. |
They are not so good. We are going to beat them. We are a much better team. |
They battled harder and came after us a little harder than we went after them. They played a better 60 minutes than we did. |
They came at us hard, and we turned the puck over way too many times, ... They were all over us. They worked hard and they wanted to win. You could see they were a desperate team and we weren't. |
They came in pretty late, but when they came in, I was very interested and excited. It's an organization that always shows they want to win. It's a class organization. |
They know the game real well and they know what to do in pressure situations. They're playing like they have a couple years behind them. |
They outplayed us heavily in the third period, |
Things weren't looking good, but we kept our composure today like we didn't do in the first two games. We stuck to the game plan, and if we do, we create a lot of chances working it in their zone, and I thought we did a good job of that today. |
This is the fun time. This is what you play for. |
Those two games couldn't have turned out any better for us. |
Usually, the good goal scorers, they are not just good at scoring, but they pay a price in front of the net. I think I see that in Simon. |
We came out hard in the third and we deserved to win. I thought we were a better team today. |
We came out hard on the ice and showed them we wanted to win. |
