That's the new league. Three-nothing isn't safe. You have to give them credit, too. We didn't just completely quit. They came really hard. We were able to get out of the second, which was huge, at 3-2, and we hung on.
More Quotes from Andrew Raycroft:
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.Andrew Raycroft
I guess, in a way, it's good that that didn't happen this past April. I don't think any of us who played in that series have forgotten it, though. I know it's a night I'll never forget.

I felt good on the ice, the first day is always hard. It felt better than I thought it would.
Andrew Raycroft
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.

The leg feels really good. I'm back in the mix and I'm healthy.

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.
