I don't know what's going to happen. It's just a tough situation. It makes it hard to avoid the question for two weeks. It's tough for everybody. For us, what's done is done. You can't change it. It's just the way you react to it, the way you handle it that is going to make the difference. It's definitely something we wish we could avoid.
He looks like he's not even trying out there and he just picks me apart every time, so it's definitely not a fun situation.
It's go time now for the NHL teams. It's the drive to the end of the season for who's going to be in the playoffs or not, so I'm definitely excited everybody is starting again.
This is a big rivalry here and we're definitely excited about the situation that we're in but we haven't won anything yet.
It's definitely a great day for Devils' fans and the organization and Scotty being the first and building some history with the organization. It's well deserved. Seeing what the Rangers are doing all the time, when you look at what our captain did, it's a little more impressive as far as numbers with winning three Stanley Cups and getting to the Finals four times.
It's definitely nice to see two of my teammates along with me in the starting lineup, ... It's something we're really excited about. ... When you see three guys on the same team at the All-Star game, it's pretty amazing.
The last win is always the toughest win. Whether it's the Rangers or any other team, it's tough to put a team away and we are definitely in good position to do that.
Definitely it was key not having him around. We took advantage of him not being around. That's good.
I think we're definitely not sharp as far as my game and everybody defensively. I think it's a combination of a lot of things why defensively you're not successful. I don't think you can pinpoint it to one person. As a group, we're just not sharp and have been playing the price a lot.
Right now, we don't look at the division. We're looking more at our conference, where we stand. Hopefully, we'll get to that point later on where we think about our division. But, if you look, our record in our division is not that good. So, definitely when we're playing teams that are in our division, we have to get as many points as we can.
It's definitely a great situation. We have to be happy about what's going on right now. We made our chance. ... All year we've been below everybody and now at the end it makes you feel pretty good to go through such a tough year and even have a chance to do it.
These nights are going to happen. It's definitely disappointing to do that against a team like that, but that's the way it is.
For us defensively, we take a lot of pride in it. This year it's a little different because of the circumstances of the CBA. There are no bonuses. The guys are definitely out for just pride and feeding off that performance to move on to the next game.
I don't think our approach will change that much because we're up 3-nothing. We just don't want to give them life. We are definitely scared of that hockey club.
