"I've got great emotions in a couple of areas," Trotz said after the game. "Number one is beating a very good team that's got so much talent. I had so much invested with that group of core players that I can't tell you how much they mean to me. I'm trying to have those same relationships with my group. Hopefully, we can share something special. I look on the other side and I see champions over there. You look at Ovi, you look at [Nick Backstrom], [TJ Oshie], Braden Holtby, John Carlson, all of those guys. Those guys are champions in my mind. They always will be."
