Daniel Alfredsson Tonight Quotations

We tried hard today, there's no question. We knew there's not a lot of time between tonight and tomorrow. It's not fun to lose anytime, but we have to be ready for tomorrow.

When the team plays well, good things happen for the individuals as well. I got some good breaks tonight and was able to put them away.

From the beginning our goal was to get to the final and play for the gold medal. It's always tough to go all the way, and we have had some good luck. Tonight we had a great effort from 20 guys.

Our special teams tonight were the difference. Five-on-five, I think we were the better team. It's a tough loss.

They seem to be in a little bit of a funk right now, ... They didn't seem to have a lot of jump tonight and we're going really well.

You've got to be ready to play any team in this league, and we wanted to be ready tonight and I think we were in the first period. I think that's the biggest thing for us. If we go out there and give it a great effort, we're a tough team to beat. We've got a great chance of winning every game now, and that should be our mind-set.
