Nothing bothers him, and that's pretty amazing, considering what he went through. And we noticed that from Day 1.
I know it was hard. I was watching the whole time and you never want to see a guy flop around like that.
Do you want to lose 5-1 or 3-2 in a tough game? Either way, it's a loss. We put them on their heels real quick, but they stormed back.
(Hasek) was the reason we won. It was really tough taking those penalties in the first seven minutes, but then we got one at the end and that might have taken the wind out of their sails.
We didn't get the second and third chances that we usually get, which is uncommon. It happens, but he is right, we do have to learn how to play those 1-0, 2-1, games. It'll come. We're halfway through the season and we've got a lot of learning to do, but eventually we're going to win.
They played a fantastic road game. We kind of ad-libbed and got away from our game and you saw the result.
After Alfie left the game, you are always thinking about how he's feeling and you don't like to see a guy get hit that hard. In between periods, we knew that we had to get the lead for him. It didn't matter who scored, it was a great team effort. We didn't try to be individual about it.
We knew that if we hung around until the third period, that once we got a break we would open it up. They could have done the same thing to us.
