When you lose nine in a row, you don't have that confidence. But the good thing about this club is we stayed together. When it's 4-0, we had all the excuses to lose, but we didn't panic. We all needed this, because there was a lot of pressure on us, with all the talent here and we weren't winning.

Maybe we just didn't shoot enough in previous games on the power play. But with a guy like John LeClair in front of the net, he's a great guy to have there when you shoot, so we have to use him.

I was trying to create offense. It seemed like I caught those guys flat-footed. Maybe it was a long shift for them.. I don't know. I just skated around them, and found the goal.

I understand there are people who were here before, like Mario [Lemieux], and he was the quarterback of the power play. We're probably going to use his skills a lot, so I'm probably not going to have the puck as much, but that's OK with me. As long as we're successful.

I guess they liked something they saw.
