I heard [coach Jim Schoenfeld] say shoot it, so I just did it. It feels good to get on the score sheet and feel like I was contributing. I'm trying to earn some minutes, and it was nice to play a little more. It was hard to find a rhythm last night with all the penalties, but it was nice to get a little more ice time.

We talked about going to the net and playing tough, playing hard and never giving up. I think [Graves] sees that as the way I could be successful; rather than trying to use my hands to get around a guy, just use my size. That's to my advantage.
