I think a lot of it was the up and down, and my game is not really suited for that.

I think we got caught not having the urgency we needed early in the game. We didn't get out and jump on them. We didn't put them on their heels like we've done to other teams in the past.

I'm just not temperamentally suited to it,

Obviously I've been frustrated most of the year. I want to continue to try to do what I have to do to make this team win. They're going to need goals from me. I have to contribute. I have to get better.

We have to rally together. We can't feel sorry for ourselves because of the situation we're in. There's no finger pointing. It's all of us together.

It's awesome. It took me 29 years [of hockey] to get here, and I'm so proud of our guys because we got a Game 7 at home because we worked hard all year long.
