I thought they played well. It was unfortunate (Friday), but Hemmer got a nice goal to get the Czechs back into the game at 5-2. But then they had a mental miscue at the end of the second period to put them back out of it.
More Quotes from Craig MacTavish:
We all knew how important it was for us. There's so much parity between the two teams that any emotional edge is a considerable advantage and a lot of times the deciding factor. They played hard, too, but we knew we needed to win and we did as good a job as we've done all year long in the third period defending the lead.Craig MacTavish
You see it a million times at the other end with (Chris) Chelios taking liberties at the same degree or worse and not being called.

A couple of wild bounces around the net for their third and their fourth and we walk out of here with a point. But it looked early like it was going to be a slam-dunk two points.

It's difficult but it's certainly necessary. You never want to take yesterday's baggage into tomorrow's game. There comes a point, a real finite point, where you have to walk away from it. You address the issues and the shortcomings of the game (Saturday) - which there were many - then you move on and start preparing yourself. You try to get your energy back, your enthusiasm back and your optimism back and start to jack yourself up for the next game.

The guys are starting to play well in front of him, and we're getting the consistent performance we were looking for from the position.

Ryan has been an integral member of our team for a long time around here. We don't have a lot of guys with the type of tenure that Ryan has on our hockey club. That's not withstanding the value that he has purely from a playing standpoint. He's a versatile guy and he really does a lot of things well for us. We are certainly happy to have him back, and happy they settled and made an equitable deal and arrangement before reaching arbitration.
