They came at us hard and they kept hitting. We took the 2-0 lead and when you do that in somebody else's building, you had better get that third one. We weren't able to do that and they got the momentum.

When you've got an early lead like that, you don't want to back off at all. But I think they just kept pounding and kept working, and they got a few breaks, got a few goals, and before you know it, it's a 2-2 game.

It just seemed like everybody got deflated when they kept hitting shots, ... We have to be tougher than that. We can't let a team hit a couple of tough shots and then say: 'Oh well, we can't stop them.' That's what we can take from this game. Mental toughness. We can't let ourselves get deflated like that.

(Taking the lead) was much like when Danica (Patrick) took the lead at Indy.

Team Redden is ready. If we hang four rib cages from the posts I think Zee could win.

I've got my new Blackberry so I was on NHL.com keeping updated on scores whenever I couldn't watch the team.
