Seventh or sixth or five. Everything's got some incentive. We'd like to move up in the standings and finish as high as we can. The priority is getting in the playoffs. That's the bottom line and first priority.

I thought we'd be sixth or seventh after the first day.

It was good to see him, talk with him and get a better assessment of his foot. He's a tough goalie. He's made big saves, he's very athletic, he's quick and overall he's in tune with the game. If we can get him in before the end of the year, it might be a good scenario.

I was very upset with the way we began. We were under siege there in the first period. Down 3-0 going to the third, it doesn't look good. But we could have easily gotten a point (by sending the game to overtime) and who knows what would have happened after that.

Milan, tricky player, ... He upgrades the whole team.

You look at how he's approached it and kept everybody together. They've definitely been dealt a tough hand, but he's still trying to bring some meaning to coming to the rink every day for the guys.
