Brendan Shanahan Knew Quotations

I was surprised, but I knew he was having a bit of a tough adjustment here. But there are a lot of guys who decided to call it a career after the lockout. You can't blame a guy for trying to come back and being 100 percent sure.

We lost a couple players and our rotation got a little messed up. We found a way to win. Obviously, this is a team on the other side that has been finding ways to win. There's no quit in Columbus. We knew they were going to come back. We maybe have to show a little bit more poise in our own end late in games.

We expected a big challenge. We knew we were going to have to win a game on the road. We've proven we can this season.

Everybody said this was going to be a tough series, so nobody expected us to win all four games. We knew we'd have to win a game in Edmonton.
