They were putting a lot of pressure on us and we spent a lot of time in our zone. Our defense was probably getting tired, so (the winning goal) was definitely a big boost for our team.

Goaltending has been the biggest thing for us. (Josh) Harding and Seamus were the difference for us (this weekend).

It was nice to get that monkey off our back and get back to the way we were playing a couple of months before.

The first two periods didn't go the way we wanted them to. We turned it around and started playing the way we're supposed to. None of the goals were pretty tonight, but that is the way it is in the playoffs.

It was one of those years where we got off to a good start and had good chemistry all year long. I'm very humbled. I have to give a lot of credit to my teammates. It was an amazing year. I'll enjoy it for tonight then focus on the playoffs.

It's great to be in the game late like we were, but we know it would have been a big lift to get one back and press the issue.
