[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]
It was a lot of fun, not a whole lot of work so it’s always a good thing.
The guys played really well in front of me and they didn’t give them a whole lot of quality opportunities, which is always nice when you haven’t played a game in a few weeks.

We’ll take the two wins for sure, kind of in different fashions. Both were low scoring games after we had a few games where we had quite a few goals.
It’s good to see we can win in different ways, especially against a team like that, where one bounce can tie the game up.
We did a good job of containing them and eliminating their opportunities.
- Ryan McDonagh
Every game is different. Every game unfolds differently. I thought we started out with a real good pace.
We were capable of getting through the neutral zone, got some good looks and then they made it harder on us to get through there.
A lot of times the only thing that is there is to chip and chase. It’s tough to get chances off that. In the 3rd, we had 4 or 5 clear out-numbered situations, great looks.
We’ve got to find a way to make sure that even though you can’t put it in, that you are playing the right way defensively.
We gave that team maybe five scoring chances tonight. We did what we had to do to win.
