| Post-game Press Conference |
- “We had a tough night, disappointing night, tough night. Nothing good to take from that game, nothing good. So the only thing is we have to move on. We’re going to move on.”
- “We’re facing adversity and we all notice. There’s nothing wrong to face adversity. All teams face adversity. All players, through the course of their career, they face adversity. And we’re doing that right now. It’s how we are going to react facing adversity.”
- “Management (made the decision to have all players available to the media following the game.)”
- “I gotta show leadership and this is what I’m going to do.”
Forward Tomas Plekanec
- “We’re the only ones to blame for that. The way we’re playing, we deserve it. But we’re going to get through it. We’re going to get back the cheers and the happy faces again, because we’re strong enough to get through it.”
Forward Lars Eller
- “I think there were a lot of games before this losing streak where our goalies kept us in the games. We were not lucky, but we were finding ways to win games 2-1 or 3-2. We’re not scoring as much as last year. We know we’ve got it within this room; we just need to go back to doing the things we did before. We know we’ve got it in here.”
