There is definitely some of that going on but (the league) wants to create more scoring, so they're happy and they don't really care about it, ... I've never had a problem (with protecting himself). I have always tried to take care of the crease anyway. For the most the referees try to do a good job of protecting you.

It's always discouraging when you don't have things go your way. They are frustrated just like the rest of us.Ed Belfour
You definitely feel that. Especially when you give up a couple of goals you usually don't give up, they're still behind you. That's a great feeling.

The puck was on the outside (of the trapezoid) and then it slipped in and as soon as it slipped in, I wasn't there in time and I wasn't even thinking and I got caught out there ... stupid, ... I thought about (taking the penalty) afterwards. Maybe it would have been a better thing to do.

It's whatever Pat wants. If he wants me to play a lot I can do that because I've done that in the past. We have a few back-to-back games this year and Telly has played well this year. Everybody has confidence in Telly and we know that he competes hard and he's going to be solid when he's called upon.

I just have a lot of respect for Terry and his family. He played without a mask, and his life was tragically ended. And it just means a lot to me to be up there with him and the other greats that have played that long.

That was a great win. I felt good tonight, I saw the puck well. It feels like things are getting back on track.
