Coach Michel Therrien:

• “Teams are really well-prepared.  It’s a game of inches. [The Rangers] capitalized on their power-play.  We got some chances on our power-play but we were not able to capitalize.”
• “A lot of credit to the way this game has been played. There’s no room out there.  Coaches are doing a good job.  Goaltenders are well-prepared.  There’s not much room.  There’s not much opportunity and when you have some, you have to try to capitalize on it.”
• “No.” (regarding a lack of urgency in the third period.)
• “[The Kreider – Emelin hit] was exactly the same type of hit (that Emelin sustained his injury.) I though [Emelin] gave us 16 minutes of solid hockey. For a first game, I was impressed. For his confidence (the hit) was the best thing that could have happened to him. [It was a] similar play and I was glad that he was capable to stand up and keep playing the game.”

Captain Brian Gionta:

• “[Price has] been that way all year and we’ve been talking about it all year. He’s given us a chance, and unfortunately we need to find ways to generate more pressure.”

 Defenceman Alexei Emelin:

• “I felt good for a first game. It wasn’t too bad. I feel really strong. I didn’t have any problems tonight. When the team loses, it’s really bad. We need to create more pressure and have more shots.”
