We did give up a lot of scoring chances, but I’m not going to say that a stronger game out of me wouldn’t have helped us get it into overtime.

I don’t know what went wrong. They were very opportunistic in the first period. Good scoring chances. A few nice plays from gifted players.

It’s a team effort and it’s always going to be like that.

My entire focus is on the game at hand. I don’t want to think ahead. If you remember, the last season we had, right before we were heading into the playoffs I started thinking about...

They always say the biggest hurdle is making sure that injury is battle-tested, putting yourself in a position where you are going to strain it. I’ve really pushed myself this week. If something fluky happens...

I’m an emotional guy, but I think for the most part, I’ve really corrected that this season. When I’m on the ice, I have to look like the calmest guy. That’s how you show leadership.

They told me it would be four to five months, … and they ruled out the World Cup. I didn’t want to miss the opportunity, so I rushed it. I would have never done that...

I?m pretty upset at the fact that we lost. I don?t like losing two in a row, but sometimes that comes with the territory. I felt really good today. I thought I made some big...

It’s definitely frustrating when you have that many penalties to kill. But on the same hand, we kind of put ourselves in that trap – nobody else did – so we have no one to...

I never like being pulled out.

Guys are putting the onus on themselves to get this right. It was an ugly win.

We had almost 60 (blocks or misses), and that was a bigger problem for us. We missed the net on too many shots that all year we hit the net on. We shot it high...

(Clarke) did a great job of keeping the free agents they needed to and adding the right ones. I think we’re going to be a really good team, and I’m just as excited as the...

I’m good buddies with him. He’s a great man. I like him a lot. Stuff will come out. I don’t know any of the details on it. But I do know that he’s a good...

My style is I’m not a guy who needs a whole lot of games. When I was a backup, I played one game a month or two games a month. You have to be ready....

I felt like I was in a zone, but you never feel good when you give up one more.

I want to win every game that I play.

I have to work hard, obviously. If you’re realistic and you look at the big picture, that is it. It’s nothing derogatory.

I don’t think we needed anybody’s best game. We just needed everybody’s best effort, collectively and individually. It really did pay dividends in the long run.

That whole country knows they have the best player in the world. They know he couldn’t miss the Olympics without at least trying. I just hope he waits until after they play us.

These guys are really gifted. These guys’ upper body strength … you see these guys take off, they are unbelievable.

I’ve always been very realistic with everything my whole career. It is what it is. It doesn’t mean I’m going to start being a bad team guy or give a lack of effort … I’m...

I wasn’t yelling at anybody. I was as fired up as everybody. We’re all upset when goals go in. It’s not a finger-pointing thing but the process of moving ahead and making sure it doesn’t...

We played a solid 60 minutes tonight. Tonight we put everything together. I didn’t have to do much. The guys were awesome. It looked like a real Flyers game.

There’s a real sense of focus on this team. We flew off the handle [last time] and we went in a different direction tonight.

I’m not really worried about that. I’m worried about myself and the best way to prepare for hockey games, and that’s all I’m focused on.

I feel good but it doesn’t make sense just to jump back into full practice. I’ll go long tomorrow [in practice]. My goal in the next week or two is to get through a game...

I felt really weak, but there’s no excuses.

I never like being pulled out. It was the right decision. I know it’s part of the game. You want to be there when things are great and when things are bad, I want to...

That’s in the past. I don’t really want to talk about that.

We’ve played pretty well against them this year. At this time of the year, every game can go one way or the other.

It was just talk between me and another player, that’s all.

I didn’t expect it. It does mean a lot to me to play.

I just wanted to fire them up and it worked for about 10 minutes.

This has been a difficult building for us. This was a step in the right direction, especially if they are our first-round (opponent).

It’s kind of weird. I find myself doing some things that are uncharacteristic of me. I surprised myself [with] how calm I am in certain situations.

You have to be very calm, especially in the most clutch situations in a game. If the other team sees that a goalie is calm and relaxed in the heat of battle, that’s a pretty...

My first thought? You can’t write it. I’m focused on seven games. I’m focused on leaving this one behind.

It’s a huge week. The schedule makers got what they wanted, especially in our division. The good thing is they don’t have to dictate to us. The future is in our hands and that’s the...

He?s got a job to do. He?s got to make unpopular decisions. He?s got to make tough decisions. I?m not going to go in and cry over spilled milk. I?m not going to be a...

You feel the pressure of the city, the pressure of your teammates and the pressure of the organization to play to the best. Pressure is not a bad word. It’s a great word. It gives...

They’ve got everything working for them right now. They are really clicking.

I was just trying to spark my team.

You really can?t do anything for a while,

As good as it may have seemed, we still lost the game. So, it wasn’t that great.

He’s a great man. I like him a lot. Obviously, stuff will come out. I don’t really know the details of it. But I do know he is a good man.

He’s one of the best. He can really turn a game around.

The good thing for me is I have more to offer. As an athlete, you are always trying to get better. You always strive to do that. I have elevated my game.

We’ve been pushing ourselves to the 11th hour all season, and now is no different.

I like to think our team is capable of handling whatever is thrown at us.
