Obviously, you dream about this day. You don't know how you are going to feel. I feel excitement more than anything else, I feel excitement for what has happened to our club.

It's awesome. It took me 29 years [of hockey] to get here, and I'm so proud of our guys because we got a Game 7 at home because we worked hard all year long.
It was a little shaky. We talked about it. Hopefully that's behind us now.
Certainly, if they are going to be calling the games the way they have been, then our power play is going to have to work.
Obviously I've been frustrated most of the year. I want to continue to try to do what I have to do to make this team win. They're going to need goals from me. I have to contribute. I have to get better.
We have to rally together. We can't feel sorry for ourselves because of the situation we're in. There's no finger pointing. It's all of us together.
Our special teams have been [bad] to say the least. Our penalty kill has not been going very well [nine power-play goals allowed in four losses] and we have not been getting that big power-play goal when we need it. When we were on that [10-1-1] streak the power play was going. We need to get back to that.
They always say they're going to cut back my ice time. Well, I don't want them to do that. I want to force them to play me.
