"They've been playing hard, but in the end they've been losing a lot of close games. You have to respect their speed and skill. You have to be on top of your game. Points doesn't come easy to us, so we have to prepare a certain way and play our best if we want to win this game."-- Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist
"You have to enjoy the moment. These are moments in your career you're going to remember. At the end of the day, it is a game, and once you get into the game, it's going to feel like that. But everything around it, the buildup, the leadup, being here with your families, you really have to enjoy that piece. But once the game starts, it's a game." -- Sabres forward Kyle Okposo
