It's hard. We had the division on the line for many games now and we didn't come through.

We got into this position with hard work. It is going down to the wire. That game will be lots of fun.

Here, he has been standing on his head. Why wouldn't he stand on his head there?

I think he played really well there, too. For some reason, he didn't have the connection with that team that he does here. Here, he has fun, he's more relaxed.

It's normal, if it's now, January or October, it happens. I think it's a pretty good mood here. We know we have to stay out of the penalty box.

He's tried to score for a few games now. It's hard to play. It gets it off his back. Everybody wanted him to score all the time.

This is the last real break before the end of the season and the playoffs and we should take the time to get our jump back.

He was outstanding. He made some unbelievable saves in some critical times. It was great to see.

Finally he gets that goal out of his head and off his back. Everybody wanted him to score, all his teammates and all the fans in New York, so it's good. At the same time, he wanted to get it over with, so it's good for everybody.
