QUOTES TO NOTE:
Four posts. It was nice to see I had that luck tonight.
You need that to win the game.
- Ondrej Pavelec
You need that to win the game.
- Ondrej Pavelec
I think we could have taken care of the puck a little better sometimes, but that's a good team putting pressure on you.
It's a really important game for us, even though it's early in the year. A character win is a good way to put it.

- J.T. Miller
We didn't have a lot of work in the first, but Pavelec did have quite a few shots after that.
He did give us a real strong game. I'm real happy for him. He's put in a lot of work and I'm sure there will be a few more of those to come.
