It seems as if we don't turn it over as much on the road as we do at home. We're real smart and we keep ourselves in every game.
I was just asking him how he was, and I said I was ready and he didn't have to push it if he was injured, and that was it, really.
He doesn't really talk about his accomplishments too much. He seems to be getting better and better for the playoffs.
He's a good goalie. He's fast and agile. He's just been hurt this season. That set him back from playing in a lot of games.
I've been working on things during practice, and it's coming through in the games. I feel pretty good about the job I'm doing and the role I have. I have to stay ready when Manny needs a break.
We've been playing solid in games that didn't mean anything and tonight they came after us. We ran into penalty trouble in the second period. After that, we just tried to kill the clock.
Tonight wasn't one of our better games, but we managed to find a way.
We played good considering how much we've played so much lately -- three (games) in four (nights). We played solid in the third period and didn't make it more interesting than it needed it to be.
We ran into a team that's really good. Nowadays, when the playoffs start, there's no underdogs.
