He was solid. He saw everything and was totally under control. He gave us momentum.

The math has been really good for us until tonight.

There's eight, nine teams that have dealt with more than us. We've dealt with our share, and I think most teams will continue to deal with it. It's how you get through it that counts.

The first seven minutes was as poorly as I've seen us play in a while. Our execution, our passing . . . we weren't crisp. We weren't alert. We deserved what we got.

We missed too many opportunities. We didn't convert.

We played a good third period. We probably had five or six real good chances when we had them on their heels, we had some great opportunities.
