It's huge. We have always been there against them but we haven't ever really had a chance. They are such powerhouses. I really think we have a chance this year.

But we don't want to harp on last year. We have a chance to prove (we're a playoff team) this year and we've got to go out and do it.

We played well in the first half and had a chance to bury them when we went up by 18 at one time.

It's been a nightmare. He now has no chance to explain his side of the story.

I didn't really know what to expect, but I'm happy so far. I had a really good chance (to score) in the third period. The puck popped out to me in the slot, and I took a shot on (Roberto) Luongo, and it hit him in the upper shoulder.

It was good that Chance was on because it was a game that was very close at the end. It could have gone either way, and he was definitely the deciding factor. Zach hit a home run that got us going and we battled. We made some mistakes, but luckily Chance was able to hang on for us.
