We got caught sleeping. We've been playing so well in the first period over the course of the last 10 games and tonight, maybe we were a little over confident.

Second, even if he's caught playing solitaire, the first thing you do is put him on probation. I don't think you'd really fire him the first time he does it.

We're still way behind them (six points) in the standings, so I think we have to be aware of that, ... We knew it was going to be an important weekend for us, and they're a very good hockey team, so we have to make sure we're ready.

For us, it's a matter of getting ready for next Friday's or next Saturday's game and that's when the real season starts. We would have liked to have been higher in the standings but this is a new season that starts next week.

Even though the potential is there, I don't think he was playing nearly as well as he's been this year. He's good saving the puck, and playing it too.

Skating is going to be a huge issue in these playoffs. For us, it fits right into our game.
