"You always want to get that lead, but I think that with the way the game is played now, when you do get the first goal, you're in a way better position, but you have to continue to play aggressive and still make plays, still try and score the next one. It's changed so much, and one, two-goal leads can evaporate pretty quickly. But you try and play the same way.
"Obviously, a lot of coaches will put emphasis on scoring the first goal. I don't know what the numbers are, but I bet you the team that scores first has a better record most of the time. But for us, if you don't score first, that's where we're more focused on staying the course and playing the same way when you don't score first - whereas, in the past, we would sort of, I think we had a little bit of a 'we've got to score on the next shift'-mentality and it cost us the other way."
