First shot was a high shot, and as soon as the puck hit the ice, he kind of whacked at it ... It went in the net. That's about it. It's frustrating, but it's one game. We can't worry about one game or one bad play. You can't let that get you down. In three days, we have another day.

But to be honest I have to give a lot of credit to [Erik] Condra and [Andre] Benoit.
