I guess it's a broken record. We've got to take the positives out of this game and the few bright spots in a long year of disappointments.

He had a good tournament ... had a big goal the other night and played another solid game (Sunday). Hopefully, he comes back with that winning spirit and continues to play well.

We're just fired up to play them. We've got a little bit of a vendetta against them, and it shows. Everybody comes out to play and it's good to see.

It's just a matter of doctors trusting me to protect myself on the ice and not be a liability.

At the beginning of the year, I think everybody picked us to be last. It's something that we never thought. But we've proved what everyone expected, I guess.

Sandy played great. We let him make that first save and he made a ton of them tonight.

We went over what made us successful in that game and we do it for two periods the last few games since then and we feel we're a good enough team to get away with that. We have to move the puck forward and just keep things simple until we get out of it.

It makes it a lot easier when you're playing with a guy like Al. I don't think I'd have had the success I've had if it were not for him. To be able to play with a guy with that much poise just makes you a better player.

I think the last three games, with the exception of one period in Atlanta, we've played pretty well. We have a great group of guys; everybody gets along and nobody's pointing fingers at anybody in this room.
