[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]
It was just a quick release that beat me.
It's a save I've got to make, especially in a situation like that where it's a tie game with 5 minutes to go.

It's disappointing, obviously. I thought we played a pretty strong game.
That last goal is tough. I hit the post then they come right back down and score.
- Dan Girardi
You go from 6 to 5 defenseman, and then the top 3 have to log a lot of minutes, so that might make it a little tough towards the end as far as defending and attacking, but that's not an excuse.
Those are things that happen. I thought for the most part we found a way to compete real hard and just before they scored that goal, we hit the post and instead of going post in, it goes post out.
