This is why playoffs are great. This has always been my favorite time of the year.

We battled the entire game, just like the last time we played.

It was a gutsy effort. We've got a pretty good stretch going here and this whole month has been our playoff run.

I thought we played well. We just couldn't get that second one past Martin. There are some things we can do better (Saturday) and we will.

I don't think our thinking caps were on to start. We took a couple dumb penalties and with their power play they make you pay. All of a sudden it's 3-0.

Joel Martin should be the goalie of the year. They're very physical, they skate real well and they're well coached. I've like this team from the beginning of the year.
