It's pretty obvious what we have to do. Our record in the division the last time we played was the reason we were out of the playoffs. We know that. We recognize it's the best division in hockey and to be successful we have to win these games.

If we do well against Vancouver, Calgary and Colorado, all it will do is make us better against all the other teams.
