It definitely feels good. This time of the year, youve got to be able to win those games. Having Wolfie play the way he did tonight was incredible. He didnt give up anything, honestly. I felt like we defended pretty well in front of him, but the few chances they got, he was right on it.

I think right now were just happy weve got three days. It’s been a pretty gruelling trip, and in our opinion, this was a bit of a trap game. Coming off that trip, these games are hard, we hadnt been to the rink until game time. Really happy with the battle that everyone put out there, the shot blocks, obviously Wolfie was phenomenal again. It’s the kind of win we were expecting to need tonight. Now well take time to rest, no excuses when Van comes to town.

I think playing with two veteran guys, its easy for me because they’re really responsible, and they play the right way. In my mind, I kinda know where they’re always gonna be, and I think what makes us a good line is we don’t cheat for offence, or anything like that. We play the right way, and we know if we play that right way, were gonna get our chances. Its a real honour to play with these two guys

Its one of those things that doesn’t show up on the scoresheet or anything like that, but I probably don’t score if he doesn’t do that. He’s a really smart player, he knows exactly where to be. To have the mindset to flash screen there, only really smart guys are able to do that. A real credit to him.
