Berra....

“We needed to win so bad,” rasped Berra late Monday night, stuffing equipment in his bag for a quick getaway back to Calgary after a wild, wacky 5-4 shootout triumph over the second coming of the Winnipeg Jets at the MTS Centre. “I was SO happy when Monny scored.

“I thought ‘Holy s---!’ Is it ever going to end?’

Hartley.......

“Well,” he said, laughing, “after the third shot, Grats (Brian McGrattan) started to promote himself, saying ‘Hey, I have the winner!’ And we were saying ‘One more, Grats. One more.’ But the guys were having fun on the bench and we knew Reto would give us a chance to win.”

“I think they’re charging the fans to leave the building,” said Hartley. “If that one wasn’t exciting for them, it sure was for me. Hey, we made it interesting, we made it tough on us, but at the end we found a way to win. A BIG two points.”

Monahan....

“Whenever we do shootouts in practice, usually his percentage is not very good,” admitted Hartley. “That’s why we were going to others. But at one point, we said we’re going to give him a shot. And as usual, johnny on the spot, gave us the winning goal.”

Monahan, per usual, didn’t seem overwhelmed by the occasion.

“I was . . . OK,” he replied, asked about prior shootout experiences. “My first year in junior I was all right. Last year I wasn’t too good. So I was kinda nervous there. But I think I felt good once I got on the ice.

“I kinda had a plan. It’s something I usually do in practice and fortunately enough it worked.”
