Before the deadline, I was kind of expecting to go somewhere and it hurt a lot. Now it seems like there's a dozen teams I'm going to next summer. At this point, you laugh at it and see how the summer plays out.
More Quotes from Andrew Raycroft:
It's definitely a different mind-set. I'll work just as hard if not harder. It's always felt like my season started Sept. 5 and not Oct. 5. Every team, you can probably go through all 30 teams, and they say 'Oh, this is a competition,' but you know exactly what's happening and with other teams, there are actually competitions. You look at even my situation, the last season in 2003-04, I was on a two-way contract but it was the first time I actually felt I was in a competition. The two or three years before, the writing was basically on the wall. It didn't really matter. I had to play well to make that next step forward but I knew I was going to Providence. I think the last season was a legit competition. I had to play well and I actually had a shot and fortunately it worked out.Andrew Raycroft
No, I like the game even though it can be pretty rough on goalies sometimes. I like it when we're scoring them the way we were tonight. I don't think there's much the goalies can do, but just be ready at all times, and the defenses will figure it out and get better. As long as we win, I'm fine with it.

That definitely can happen. But there will be a lot going on in the summer and that's why it's so hard to speculate right now. There are going to be a lot of things change here in this organization (as it replaces fired general manager Mike O'Connell), a lot of (player) personnel changes, so it's hard to say which way it will go.

We played well. We had a lot of possession and we did a lot of good things. We kind of cleaned up after the first, we cleaned up the odd-man rushes against us. You try to take the good with it.
