We've always thought they were a very skilled team but they're even more skilled than people know. They skate really well, they swarm the puck, the protect they puck well. They all have exceptional puck skills, stick skills, and they compete.
The team has played so well defensively. Even though we're nicked up, (the defense) just keeps plugging away and doing its job.
It's a good feeling out there right now from a defensive responsibility (standpoint). Good teams are able to turn good defensive situations into good offensive situations, and that's what's happened in the last several weeks.
