It's nice to get but at the same time there are much more important things ahead of us right now than career wins. The two points are much more encouraging, with the effort the team had tonight. |
It's nice to go out with a win, but at the end of the day our guys are disappointed we didn't make it to the playoffs. All in all, I think we should be proud of the way we played in the second half and carry it over into next year. |
It's nice to go to the locker room with a two- or three-goal lead. And the nice part about it was we didn't sit back; we came out and played the way we were supposed to play and got the job done. |
It's not an ideal situation. But you can't help yourself. |
It's one of my weak points, coming into a game when I didn't plan on it. But I don't think I did too badly. |
It's real hard no matter how you lose it. At this point in the season, every game is crucial. We have to pick up points. That's the bottom line. We played hard, but unfortunately no points in the standings. That's what counts at the end. |

Obviously after tonight, it's going to take a major miracle. |
Once they got on a roll, they were firing it from every angle possible. Luckily, there weren't that many bad bounces. |
Once you get in a groove early in the game, I start building some confidence. The more the game advances, the harder it is to beat me. |
People here are surprised I'm on the Canadian team and speak Italian with them. I got in a cab and had a great conversation with the driver. He was telling me how it was his dream to come to the United States, just to live there and see what it's like. |
Roberto was a high pick (fourth overall in 1997), and he was supposed to be the franchise goaltender there, ... But it turned out good. We're both happy. |
