It's Manny's ball, and whenever he gets tired or they need me, I'll be there. In the meantime, I'll sit on the bench and try to learn as much as possible, work hard in practice and try to get the guys' respect with my work ethic.
It was a team effort, and we got the win we needed at home. We knew they wanted to get one of two here, but we came together and stepped up when we needed to.
I went outside and talked to Manny a bit. He said that every goalie has to go through it. It meant a lot for me that he was there.
