It was almost too much for my brain to handle. It was a crazy day. I tip my hat to the players. It isn't easy playing in that environment.

We have to start believing. (Our standings points deficit) now seems manageable.

He's a special hockey player. Early in his career, he looked like this. I don't know what happened in a few of his middle years, but certainly this year, he's found the love of the game again. We stood around and watched him make a lot of plays. We gave him too much respect and too much room.

The goal at the end of the second period really hurt us. Good teams get things done at key times in the game.

I think it comes down to desperation. I really don't understand some of the efforts we're getting from some of the guys when we're supposed to be trying to make a push to get into the playoffs. It's astonishing.

He's been outstanding for us.
