I think that's the biggest change everybody's noticed around the league. You could tell after it happened, after he came back from his knee injury, he wasn't quite the same player. But obviously with him playing over in Europe and being able to come back and get a fresh start here, it's made a big difference for him.

Obviously if we had lost, we were going down three [games] to one. But that game gave us confidence we could do it, especially in a great city like Montreal. You know every time you go there, there's going to be 21,000 people there and the game is going to be shown all over Eastern Canada.

Obviously you're never satisfied. It's disappointing every time we lose.

We like to play an up-tempo, aggressive style. That's how we're built. We're not built on clutching and grabbing. If they were to change that and change the rules, it's going to hurt the teams that are built on speed.
