"We've done some good things. Our record isn't where it needs to be and where we would like it to be, but we feel like we have a strong group, we have a strong brotherhood, we have guys who really play the right way, we feel we have players really developing. Now we need to get some consistency with some players and in the way we want to play." -- Devils coach John Hynes
"Early in the season last year they outworked us. This is a team that prides itself on its work, just knowing John Hynes, who he is. They're going to come and work and they're going to keep it simple. They've been playing very good hockey lately." -- Sabres coach Phil Housley
