[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]
I think after what happened in the last game, we were all upset.
I was really annoyed and it really bothered me, so you try to use that energy to bring it over into this game and be determined that we need this one.
I think the first period we played one of our better periods.
- Henrik Lundqvist
Kreider has a huge influence on the game for us, the way he can skate, the way he can hit and shoot, the physicality.
When he’s putting all three of those together, it’s a tough combo for anyone to defend.
So it’s a good sign for him that he was able to get it going. He has to continue that for us if we want to be successful as a team.
- Ryan McDonagh
We tried in Game 1 to take the space away but it’s a real hard thing.
Ovechkin has some real good looks tonight and obviously he’s an elite player and he’s going to get some good looks.
We’re trying to limit the amount of numbers that he gets.
- Alain Vigneault
