It's really too bad because for Canada at these Olympics, it was very successful. We're all very disappointed as a men's hockey team we didn't win the gold.

I have been tested before, in different competitions -- the world juniors, a couple world championships. I've never had a problem and I don't foresee any problems here.

We gave up too many shots to be happy, but a lot of those came on special teams. We were happy to get the points, and it's good to know the guys in here can rebound.

We've done a lot better job winning games on the road. We just haven't done a good enough job making this a tough place to play. I don't know [why].

Gave up too many shots for anyone really to be happy about but I think they had a lot of special teams shots. It felt like we killed a lot of them. It was a hard-fought game and I'm happy that the guys in here could rebound from last night's disappointment.

I don't know if we were waiting around for the usual suspects to try and get us going or what.

We knew we had to get a lot better defensively. We can't continue to win games 6-5.

I looked up and saw that we had a screen so I decided to shoot high and hard and was lucky enough to pick the corner.

I had the angle on him and I knew he was going wide. He jumped back to try and miss the hit and by doing that, he got up and I just finished my hit and put him into the bench.
