I thought we had good focus for 30-35 minutes. I think the big factor was when we needed to be strong and heavy with the puck, we were very light. We had way too many unforced puck errors. Mike Keane staked Dallas to a 1-0 lead when he beat goalie Chris Osgood from the right faceoff circle 40 seconds into the game. When I first got in the league, for some reason I played against them a lot.
Every goalie has teams they enjoy playing against.
I like playing against Belfour, too. It's fun to challenge yourself when you're playing against him. I'm never happy when I get sat out. Tonight was no exception. Eddie gave us a chance to win.
