He made an awful lot of good saves. That's one factor you can't control in a hockey game -- how the guy wearing the pads at the other end is going to play.

That's hockey sense. You saw some chemistry between some of our forward units tonight. Guys made some great plays.

We got off to the start we wanted. We established our game and played physically.

I won't say anything about what happened to him (Stafford). Obviously he wasn't available for the rest of the game. We've got to adapt and overcome injuries this time of the year. They're part of the game. Whether or not he's available for Saturday night, we just adapt to that and overcome it.

Hockey is a game where intimidation is still a part of the game, and you'll go to great lengths to try to win a game. If you know a player has an injury or weakness, he becomes vulnerable. He becomes targeted.

We saw some good chemistry with our forward unit. All the goals we scored came after two or three passes.
