Did I hear a whistle before the puck went in the net? No, of course not. The interpretation of the rule was explained to me and I don't agree with it.

You have to put the puck in the back of the net. It's not good enough to be getting good chances.

We are what we are. I mean, it's not an NHL lineup. We're playing a lot of prospects. On the positive side some people got to see maybe some future players, but these kids are still a long way away from being ready to wear this sweater for real.

They have a lot of superstars and they can put the puck in the net and create a lot of scoring chances. But Nabokov and our defense kept holding, kept holding, and we finally got a chance on the power play.

There were times we could have put on the puck on the net a little bit more, but we were looking for the perfect play.

The puck went in, and the referee admitted that he had blown the whistle before the puck went in and apologized. It was a really tough break. It would have been great to have the tie at that point, and take our chances in overtime.
