The biggest thing we had in this game was the passion. From the beginning, we wanted this game, and the Czechs felt that.

This is a great opportunity. We don't want to have to go back to Florida. We obviously know that this is the biggest game of the year for us and we want to go out there and set the tone right away.

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.

We were ready to play from the beginning, that's the biggest thing we take from this win.
