counted honor longer people took
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.
home jersey people proud
A lot of people went home happy. That was awesome. I was proud to be in New Jersey tonight.
guy people practice realize score
It's one of those things, we're just used to it. It's Marty. People don't realize that if you score on that guy in practice you have to let him know it because he's going to go down as one of the best.
capital devils good hockey might people
That's anything in New York. It's the capital of the world. That's the way it is. It will always be that way. But, at the same time, as much as people might not want to say it, the Devils have been good for hockey too.
fact loving mess people
I think people were loving the fact that we were a mess here for a while.
fix
I don't know what's going on. But we better fix it quick.
doubt front guy loves olympic plus respect team
I was just kind of like, 'Oh man, in front of the U.S. Olympic coach. Plus the team lost. Every guy here still has respect and loves Larry. There's no doubt about it.
buddies complaints-and-complaining nice
My buddies are now complaining about my assists. It's nice to score, but we've got to win.
couple high year
Obviously, we're going to look at them. They're our cross-town rivals. They've embarrassed us a couple of times this year and we want to go as high as we can go. We've got to keep building. But when it comes to them, it will always be different.
coming general lead
It's kind of like a general coming down to lead the way. And we feel as if we haven't done anything yet.
seems
It seems like it's early. But it isn't. We need these points.
coming game gone great guy harder next smart
Coming back for your first game, you're always going to have a jump. But to come back from what he's gone through is great to see. The next game is going to be harder for him, but we have to be smart about his shifts. We don't want to overuse the guy right away.
striking
It's like striking out in baseball. It's a long way back to the bench.
patty took typical
That was a typical Patty game. He took over right from the get-go.
