Just the way those guys battled all night, it's easy to say we have a desire to be in the playoffs. We faced tons of adversity (Thursday night). Read between the lines.

I think it means a lot for Dany and it means a lot obviously for us because we all know what happened and the process that Dany had to go through. I think that this young man deserves lots of credit for not only doing it in a very good way, but also getting ahead of schedule.
chances couple decisions face felt game good key moments positive power saw situations step tough
I think it's a very positive first step. He had some real good chances on the power play. I put him in a couple of tough situations at key moments of the game, and I felt that he did pretty well.
