I think we were close before the lockout, and now, even though we have a bunch of new guys, we?re still close, if not closer to being a championship team.

I had no idea the puck was in. But when I went to talk to the referee, he said the puck was in. He said they called that one in from Toronto. I don?t know if that?s a new thing in the NHL, but it?s always fun when you?ve got those kinds of goals on your side.

It?s going to be like that all season and we need to get used to it. Something that was natural to do before, I can?t do now.

He does a great job guarding low. We have to bring it up on him.

We dominated the game in Buffalo because of the start. The start of the game is very important for us, especially with the type of team we have.

I think it would be surprising if my name was on it. It?s always the same guys. A guy on the third line who plays against the best lines every night. It?s tough to tell.
