Obviously decisions need to be made, but he certainly is helping himself.

We have a handful of guys right there who are knocking on the door. How that plays out remains to be seen, but that will be something we will try to manage on a day-to-day or a week-to-week basis. We will certainly have some difficult decisions to make.

We certainly generated enough scoring chances, especially in the third period. On most nights, enough to win. Biron made some good stops, especially down the stretch.

I can relate to him just through the experience that he's been through in the past. He's a guy who has been in and out of the lineup or has been on the back end of the lineup and was trying to earn a spot on the team or find his niche. Certainly last year he was given an opportunity to play on an offensive line and have the chance to produce on the offensive side of the equation, and to his credit he's shown that he's capable.
