club complete gone helping honor numbers season time
Every year, I just want to keep improving. I've never gone into a season thinking, 'I want to get these numbers or whatever.' Every year, I want to be a better player, a more complete player. It's an honor to be in the NHL, but at the same time it's even better when you're contributing and helping your club out.

It took awhile. A lot of people kind of counted us out at the beginning. It took us a little longer than we wanted, but it's an honor to make the playoffs.

The crowd was rocking during the national anthem. It was a huge goal and it settled everyone down.

The league's changed, and maybe some of the Devils' wins aren't the way the Devils used to win. But we'll take it.

It was a typical Scott Stevens win, I guess.

It was an accident. You guys know me. I never do that. I just shot it out and it hit him in the skate blade. Maybe he had a sore foot.

It was impressive. That's as good as it gets. It's like he hasn't missed a beat. If anything, he's gotten stronger. It was fun to see.

It just shows what kind of team they are. They didn't give up, they played to the end and it was great for the fans tonight. They got a great hockey game.
