This was an important game for us. These are two big points for us with the schedule we have coming up.

That was a good goal by our third line. Everyone touched the puck and was in the right place.

The first period, we dominated them, and in the second, it was totally the flip side. I thought we looked tired in that second period.

The way everything went down last year was a little awkward for both of us just given the situation and how well the team ended up playing and how far we ended up going. It's one of those situations where the front office makes decisions. I was happy that I was able to finally get a chance to prove my worth as a starter.

They're really looking forward to playing and getting on the field. This could be a big game for us. It won't clinch the title, but being up two games in the section with two games left would put us in a good situation. They're very excited about it, but they know it's going to be hard work.

Drew averaged about 11 points a game for us this year. He really stepped up tonight and kept us in the game.
