We have a lot of different kind of guys in the locker room, but not a lot of guys who are 6-4 and as tough to move as Joe. He's a big guy who really protects that puck, and he's tough to get off of it. He's a skill player, so he should be a good addition.
More Quotes from Peter Laviolette:
It's good to get out on the road a little bit. When it's over, trust me, it'll be time to come home, but we've got a great group in there in the locker room. I think the road trips once in a while are good for you.Peter Laviolette
I thought the guys played so unbelievably hard tonight to make sure that we needed to end the night in the right way. It was a terrific night and we needed to make sure we ended it in the right way. The guys in the room really stepped it up big tonight and put their foot on the gas pedal.

Obviously we keep putting (Gerber) in there when we play Florida. I think the pattern is since training camp. I think he's beaten them since then. Going back to that, I thought that he had a really solid game the first 30 minutes. It seems there were a lot of shots from the outside and we did a nice job cleaning it up in front of him. He did what he was supposed to do.

It's obviously his first crack in the NHL and his first crack in the playoffs, so I don't think you really know what you'll get. But he's calm, cool and collected in there, and I think he exemplified that in the playoffs. He was just very calm.

It was a frustrating night for the players, myself, the fans...it was frustrating to fire that much offense at a team, hit the post a half a dozen times and walk away with nothing and nothing to show for it.
