On the team’s performance:
I thought [Detroit] came hard. We checked well tonight. We spent a lot of time in our own end tonight, but I thought for the most part, we did a really good job protecting the slot and blocking shots with good sticks.
They came hard. We knew that. We capitalized on some of our chances.
On whether the attention to detail defensively was improved over the previous couple of losses:
Definitely. Throughout the whole game, we did a pretty good job of protecting the interior and protecting the net front.
