Maybe people don’t notice it but I feel stronger out there. I’m not getting knocked off the puck as much. Obviously I still have a ways to go as far as growing and getting stronger...

You could say, yeah, if we had them, we would be in the playoffs and things would be different, but you never know. Decisions were made and we had the guys in here to do...

We owe those guys. They’ve taken seven games from us this year. We want to prove to them that we can beat them. If we do that and we have the confidence to do that...

This is my natural position and I feel I’m a lot more involved in the play.

Mats is our best player, in fact he’s a world-class player. When you get on an odd-man rush, you know he’s going to get the puck to you.

It could easily have gone the other way. We’re just lucky our power-play came through again.

I was pretty fortunate to get a giveaway by their goalie to take advantage of.

We can’t take penalties early in the games if we’re not going to be able to kill them. We shot ourselves in the foot tonight.

Kyle is a lot more crafty than we are, so he should go in the middle.

You can say we played better, but when you still lose it is not fun. We can’t get down on ourselves. We have to turn this thing around.

The last two weeks, I think I’ve been as hot as ever since I’ve been in pro hockey. It’s nice to reach that total. Hopefully I can beat it in the next couple of days...

It’s frustrating. It’s not fun, but we can’t get down on ourselves. We have to turn this thing around somehow.

We have been trying to worry about ourselves and hope that the other teams will lose some games. But that’s not what has happened. [Tampa Bay, Montreal and the New Jersey Devils] have kept winning.

We seem to be creating a lot of odd-man rushes. We’re killing a penalty, but we seem to be jumping into the play and doing things like blocking shots to create a 2-on-1. We seem...

If we played all season against Ottawa like we did tonight, it would have been a different story.

Alex and I clicked right off the bat in training camp, so it’s no surprise.

When you go down like that, it sucks.
