We got lazy and we got away from our systems. We did it before in the first round and we've done it in this round. We've lost our focus and to me that isn't acceptable for a team that won 30 games this season.

It is true, when you get knocked out you go golfing.

After regulation we already knew we were going for the win. Our season has been about going the extra mile and doing what we can to win. We wanted to clinch first place with a win, not a tie.

I think we've grown more as a team in this series than we have all season which is saying a lot. We've had a lot of ups and downs this series but all 23 guys pulled together and got the job done. I'm happy and excited for them and now we have to beat another strong team.

You can't give any team in this league a moment to regroup. We sat back a little and they came up with two quick goals and all of a sudden we were down. It's going to be like that from here on.

The guys love playing in front of the home crowd which has been pretty much a packed house each night. It's a great atmosphere, but we need to win on the road too.

I wouldn't say that was the turning point in the game. Riley had to make a lot of good saves in the game. If I had to describe our effort (Saturday) I would say it was less than inspiring. We didn't play well but I can't complain too much, we're up a game.

There were times when only 10 or 12 guys would show up and go through the motions of a practice. There was no energy and no desire. This was not the place to be.

I love the way we came out in the first period. But then we had a four-minute power play and only got two shots on goal and in a game like this you just can't do that. We sat back and got complacent and against a veteran team like (the Braves) they'll beat you every time. We have to stay up for the entire game and play with urgency.
