Ian Laperriere Good Quotations

You can see how close it was for all these teams to get into the playoffs. Anybody really had a chance to beat anybody. The league wanted pretty much an even league and that's what they got. I think the No. 8 seed (in the playoffs) can beat the No. 1 and the No. 7 seed can upset the No. 2 seed and you can just go down the list. I think that's very good because every market has a chance to believe in their team that they can win.

That's what they want with eight games against the same team. That's what they got out of us, a good rivalry, it's good for the game. People like fighting, it just happened to be me tonight.

At least we've made it fun. We've played some games out there, so it's nothing like boot camp or anything like that. It's more like it's been good to get in shape, but at the same time you can make it fun, and that's what they've been doing. It's getting old right now. We want to get back at it and play.

I had a good chance, but it was a nice play by them to make the save.

It's a good team win, but not too much time to celebrate that. We're going to Calgary and get right back at it.
