I pleased with the effort and how we executed things, but I'm really not happy with anything. We lost in the playoffs 2-1 and we'll move on. There is always carry over from game-to-game and hopefully we'll carry over the good things.

It was a gutsy effort. We've got a pretty good stretch going here and this whole month has been our playoff run.

It's been an evolution since our first game in Missouri. We were definitely an expansion team in that sense. We played with the chemistry in the room all season, trying to get the right parts. We just wanted to get in the playoffs to give us a chance.

This is why playoffs are great. This has always been my favorite time of the year.

Saturday is just one of those games you have to forget about. You can't let that effect your performance in your next game. That's something we've been doing better of late.

We just have to take care of things we can take care of. And when we have chances we have to bury them. We've got to be darn near perfect.

We battled the entire game, just like the last time we played.

It felt like a playoff game out there. I thought we played well in the first two periods, then made one or two mistakes. The shoe could've been on the other foot and the guys have nothing to be ashamed of. We learned a lot from this one.

I thought we played well. We just couldn't get that second one past Martin. There are some things we can do better (Saturday) and we will.

Joel Martin should be the goalie of the year. They're very physical, they skate real well and they're well coached. I've like this team from the beginning of the year.
