I was surprised. It was the first shift for us. We just tried to throw the puck on net and hopefully go for a rebound or cycle the puck. I took the shot and it just kind of went five-hole. I was surprised, but we'll take it.

I'm not going to say I picked the corner, was going for top shelf and all that. I'm trying to be honest.

I'll be honest, I was just throwing the puck at the net. I was trying to pass the puck, but they covered everything. So I just threw the puck at the net. I didn't even look where it was going.

I'll be honest, I just threw the puck at the net. I was trying to find Richie (Brad Richards) in the slot. (The Devils) cover everything, so I just threw the puck on the net. I didn't even look where the goalie was.

I was just trying to look for [Brad Richards] to give him a pass and he was covered there, so I just took a shot and it went in.

We had a great penalty kill there, and it gave us a chance to stay in the game.

I think the way we have played, in my opinion, that's probably the best we've played so far in consecutive games.

I'll be honest, I just threw the puck on the net.

This is huge. It's a good trip, a tough trip. We need to take advantage of it.
