I chipped it up into his pad and got pushed into the net.

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

It's really a tough pill to swallow. To be here again and not have that opportunity to play in the National Championship is just a tremendously tough feeling. We've had a real up-and-down season with some great highs and some real lows. A lot of people counted us out throughout the whole season. I think we have shown a lot of character this year.

It was just a great play. Mike Lundin put the puck up nicely to Greg. He jumped over the blue line and I came over for support. He put it into space. I just was trying to get off quick. The glove was open so I just tried to put it there.

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.

It's a great accomplishment. We started off great this year, had some trouble, and there were lot of questions around about us. But we knew within the dressing room that we had the team, had the talent, just had to put it together.

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

And we're going to need some of the new guys to step in and contribute.

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 had the crowd out of the game. With that goal they just got back in the game and the place went crazy.
