"It's a tremendous accomplishment to play 1,000 games in this league. The way Jason did it, going through the minors and earning his way up and scraping and clawing and appreciating what it takes to play in this game. But his approach, I think he lived off those experiences, which helped him. But the longevity of everything, that's just taking care of yourself, having a passion for the game, coming to work every day, enjoying what you're doing and you can have a long career." -- Sabres coach Phil Housley on forward Jason Pominville
"We're giving up a lot. I think if you look at chances we're giving up, it's 40, 50 shots and high-end chances. We're not generating any turnovers, we're not forechecking fast, we're not executing anything fast and I think that's been a lot of the problem." -- Senators forward Mark Stone
