[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]
In the third, they really turned it up. It was tough for us to get up.
They kept coming back and we had to make some big plays to pull this one away. The way the game was played in the third, it was going to be a battle right in front.
Guys blocked shot, the puck was laying around. It was hard for me to track it down a lot of times. You just try to make the right plays.
That was the toughest part, just seeing the puck in the third because they kept coming and they were in the crease a lot.
- Henrik Lundqvist
I thought we did a good job of protecting the house and I think it starts with the forwards having good back pressure.
And when they’re coming back as hard as they were, it allows us to have better gaps and make plays at the blueline.
And I thought we did a good job of that and taking away their time and space.
- Keith Yandle
All the games, for me, have been pretty similar. Not a lot of room on the ice. You’ve got to earn every inch.
A lot of tight checking from both teams. A lot of compete level. Tonight, we were able to get off to a pretty good start and two good periods, offensively and defensively.
They had a real strong push in the third, which is to be expected. They’ve got a great team and great players. We were able to hold them off.
