I honestly didn't know how my body would respond today. I'm definitely not 100 per cent, but if I can be a small piece to this puzzle to help us get into the playoffs, then I'll sacrifice my body for it.
I think this game has just got back on it's feet. I don't think we need that garbage settling in.
I didn't know if it was going to count. I was pushed into the net, but it wasn't dislodged. I saw the puck go by me. I asked Matt after and he said it went in before it came off.
Hopefully, I can go a little bit harder next game and get back in stride. My experience can help a little bit -- I'm a small piece of the puzzle and just trying to contribute.

Surprisingly I didn't feel too bad. I think the coaches did a great job watching my minutes and getting feedback from me on the ice. Hopefully I can go a little bit harder next game and hopefully get back in the stride.
I thought the first period was a solid period. The second period, we weren't bad, but they kind of took it to us a little bit. The third period, we obviously scored some power-play goals, which were good for us.
At the end of the day what happened was we didn't perform, so the easiest guy to get rid of is probably Crow right now. He can't take full responsibility for it, but Dave felt a change needed to be made and is doing what he felt is best for the team.
I've been around long enough that people know what kind of player I am and I think there's only an upside to all this.
We all know the pressure he's been under. To see the bright lights shine on him is important.
