He was the best player on the ice. Jason showed a lot of poise for a young guy to be put in a position like that. The pressure did not bother him one iota. He didn't feel a thing. He just looked at it as a great opportunity and that's how it turned out for him.

We came awful close last year, ... I felt we had a great opportunity to be the Stanley Cup champs.

You face disappointments along the way, but after the disappointments comes success.
