“Those short-handed goals are always hard to swallow. It really flips things around and gives them energy on their bench. But if it happens, you should still be able to bounce back.”
“We weren't putting that much emphasis on the games coming in, so even though we won two, we're still not emphasizing them that much. This isn't about a shift in power in the division. We just made the statement that we're a good team that's going to be able to compete.”
“Tomas made some really timely saves for us and we went the other way with it. We play them so often, you never want to give them a glimpse of hope that they're in the hockey game.”
“It kind of swings momentum our way. They score that goal, they've got all the momentum, they're coming after us. Tomas makes the big save, we go down, we make it 4-1, 5-1, then the game is out of reach.”
“We're not looking behind us now, we're not going to look behind us at all. We're trying to catch Detroit. We're trying to make sure we've got home-ice advantage. There are still (28) games left in the season, so there is a lot of work to be done. We have the guys in the room to do it.”
“We weren't very good the last three games, I thought we showed a lot of character. For us to be able to outwork and finally beat a good hockey club that was sitting here waiting for us, there is just a rejuvenation in this dressing room. Now we're ready to keep going.”
“It's definitely something we've got to better ourselves on. We're trying to do a better job of getting our own shots and keeping the other team from getting so many chances.”
