I like playing the wide open game we have here. That wasn't the case on Long Island. It was all about trapping and getting back. There is a more open environment here.

At this point in time, if you can't get ready, you've got problems. This is playoff hockey. We need the points every single night. It doesn't matter if the building is empty. We're playing for ourselves, doesn't matter where we are. We need the points and we have to be ready to go.

We talked about it. We've been giving up too many chances and we have to bear down if we want to win games and want to be a playoff contending team. Tonight we did a pretty good job of that.

It was crazy. This was a football game.

We've got great guys who can move the puck and get up in the play. Offensively do some damage, that's why we're here.

We said before the game, it was going to take everybody to get this done. I think everybody took that to heart and came together.
