I was happy with the way I played. I think everyone was happy about the way everyone played. Overall, it was a positive thing.

It's something I've kind of been dreaming of my whole life. It's a relief not to worry about it anymore, and concentrate on hockey.

We hadn't been playing all that well the last couple of games. Tonight it seemed like everybody was on track from start to finish.

It would be nice to have it out of the way so I could just concentrate on hockey, ... But this is the business side of the game that creeps in. And you have to deal with it as you get older so I have to get used to it.

The first thing is to get healthy. There's no point in coming back hurt. The main goal is obviously to get to the big club, but if I have to go back down to the minors, that's what I have to do. I'm just going to play hard and see where that gets me.
