April 21 postgame quotes: Dustin Brown

On the overtime win over Dallas:
“I think we worked hard tonight. They were a desperate team and came in and found a way to get a point. It was a back-and-forth game. Giving up a two goal lead and then falling behind and being able to come back and win – it was a good response by our group.”

On his power play goal:
“I think those are momentum killers. I mean, we moved it around pretty quick. I think all five players touched it within maybe seven or eight seconds, and then it ends up in the back of the net. It’s just moving it quick and timing it well. We get Carts in the slot with time like that, it’s going to create a good opportunity for him, and obviously there’s a rebound there for me.”

On the team’s response to several calls that went against the Kings:
“I mean, probably the second goal against I’m still confused. The goal taken away right in the third, too, is a judgment call by the ref. That stuff happens throughout the course of a game and throughout the course of the season, and it’s a matter of how you respond to when things maybe aren’t going your way.”

On the challenges presented by Kari Lehtonen:
“I think Dallas has had our number, other than one game, and tonight it was a pretty good game. But a big part of their success against us is not only him playing well, but he has been able to see the puck, and I thought tonight we did a better job of not allowing him to see the puck. He still made some big saves for them.”
