On whether it is disappointing to follow up a good effort in New York with tonight’s performance:
What I would say to you is I thought we played last night and clinched a playoff spot. [The Islanders] clinched a playoff spot a while ago. I thought it was an emotional night for our team. I actually didn’t think we were very good in the first period. I thought we really battled back and made it a game. I thought Mrazek was excellent. That’s my answer.
On Garret Sparks’ game:
Any time you get an opportunity, you want a chance to win.
