We came out flying and we kept on them all game. They're a real quick team, so we had to get on them, not give them any space, and clog up the neutral zone. We got the puck deep and hit their defensemen.

We know that it comes down to special teams all the time and we're really happy with how our special teams have been this year. We've always had a great penalty kill and this year we were able to bring our power play up.

We just have do what we have been doing all year: play our style of hockey which is good team defense turning into offense. As long as our forwards come back and help out then we are going to be alright. We just have to protect Bishop and let him see the puck.

Puck movement is a huge thing, especially on the power play.

I'm very fortunate to be playing with those guys. They're great players.

It's a real tough feeling to keep your fate in other teams' hands. But hopefully it is a blessing in disguise. We really want to get in that tournament. We know we can do some damage if we get in there. Right now we're just waiting and hoping.
