“It's huge. Obviously he brings a lot of firepower back into the lineup. More importantly, he adds some heart and determination to the lineup. You never have enough guys like that.”
“We did not do a good job in managing their pressure. There was a lot of running around and too many quality chances. Definitely the most sloppy game in this stretch, but fortunately, the power play came up big for us.”
“I don't think there's any bigger goal than that one right there, up to this point. It was another highlight reel by our best player. And it just kind of shows the kind of character he has to just take charge like that.”
“It's that time of year. Every point is just so crucial for a lot of teams we're playing right now. We've set ourselves in a good position, but by no means are we taking it for granted or feel that we're going to sail into the playoffs.”
“I don't think it took a goalie change to do anything. After the second period, things were going good. It was just a matter of time. It was just the team's work ethic. And Jaromir Jagr stepped up for us.”
“There are a lot of good teams out there, and if we want to be considered one of them, we have to show up to play for a full 60 minutes. From what I've seen the last two games, teams are sitting back, but our team is not poised enough with the puck. We seem to be ramming it down our own throats and moving it where they have their guys positioned.”
