It was a long night. Truthfully, coming into Buffalo you wanted to stay positive, but with the numbers the Bandits were putting up that year, we knew what we were in for.

I didn't want to take the ball to the net but they kind of forced me in that direction. I wanted to try to burn as much clock as I could. . . . I probably should have just held on to it.

I've kept my Charlotte jersey, there aren't too many of them around, plus the ball from my first goal. I've gone from one end of the spectrum to the other and it's made me appreciate how special it is to play for quality organizations, like Rochester and Buffalo.
