It hasn't been the season that I've wanted, ... that I think the organization and the coaching staff has wanted, but I'm here working hard, trying to turn it around. Just not have another season like we did this year.

It's important for guys who haven't had a chance to play to get to play, ... In times like this, especially. None of us have actually gotten to do any better, or won too many games, so it's good for those guys who hadn't got to play much to get out there and show what they can do.

We're not getting the breaks. I don't think they had a shot in the first half, and I don't think they had very many in the second half; but the one they do get, it goes in.

It is huge going into the break getting a win against the best team in the league and then to come out today and beat a team that is below us in the standings, ... That is the object of the game to win games and make the playoffs.

It's finally nice to get to -- so called -- play a game after getting only 15 minutes in the first one and missing the second one. It was nice to get out there in front of the home crowd. I thought I had one t(goal) here off of that (long) shot. I'm looking forward to the next game in two weeks against Houston.

In the U.S., people do like to see people that they know, that they've seen on TV or on magazines or whatnot. But at the end of the day, I think Americans like winners. That's just the bottom line.
