This team has been playing really well (9-1-1) since the Olympic break. (First place) is where we've had our sights set all year. It's exciting. It's definitely great to be in that spot.
You get excited. You work for the bounces you get.
We're in a battle with Buffalo for the top spot in the division and with Carolina for top spot in the conference. It's an exciting time of the year. With those teams not slipping up very much, we can't afford to either. We've been playing really solid since the break.
We were flying out there, it was a playoff type game and we took it to them. I've said it too often, but I've got to make some saves.
Better than being complacent. It's a fresh start for us. You can see that in the boys ... it's an opportunity to put ourselves in a good position going into the playoffs.
Experience is helpful, but that's not saying you can't succeed not having any. I don't think it's the situation here with the team we have that I have to stand on my head.
We've put ourselves in a good spot, but it's not said and done. We've still got to finish it off. We realize at home is our best opportunity to do that. We've just got to re-focus for that game.
Sean Burke was a huge idol of mine as a kid, so I was really excited to play against him. I'm excited every time I get a chance to play right now. It's a new experience for me.
I squeezed my legs together and I could feel the puck there, but my momentum took me back into the net. I tried to pop it out, but I guess I crossed the line with my knees.
The second one was on a bad angle and it goes through me. I don't let that in normally, it's a bad goal.
(The shutout) is exciting too because I haven't had one in a long time. We played really well and buried some chances we had and limited their scoring chances. I just want to win games and hopefully I'll get more opportunities to do so.

Ten days on the road is a long time. We wanted to bear down today. It will be nice to get back to our own beds for a few nights.
Everything is going to be fine. I was just a little sore.
