It's not just this game. Look at the last three meetings between these two
teams. We really could have made a statement against them today.
Extended our run towards their streak and showed them that we can beat
them and the Devils really dropped the ball. I never said we sucked or
weren't going anywhere. I just said that based on the way we have played
against them I'd take Pittsburgh is a series against us. This is the only
Eastern Conf team I fear. We have not shown that we can beat them with
Lemieux (the 9-0 drubbing was before he came back).
