On whether it was fault of the team or Nashville's strong play:
"A little bit of both, it's always a little bit of both. They're coming hard and when they come hard, we need to be willing to skate. We got to start charging pucks and if they close us out, the next guy has got to be there to pick it up and close support and skate it north, and that's what we did in the third. I'm sure they sat back for a bit, but 10 minutes to go and they're not sitting back in a 3-2 game. We did a lot of things right then that we had to do better early on."
On goaltender Andrew Hammond coming in relief:
"He didn't have a whole bunch of work, but he was good. He made the saves he needed to make, so it was good to see. Hopefully, it gives him a little bit of confidence because I don't know what's going to happen to Berns (Jonathan Bernier)."
On goaltender Jonathan Bernier's status:
"I haven't talked to the trainers yet."
On climbing back in the series:
"It's just one game. Our goal is go there and win that game and then we know we're coming home and we'll prepare again. You have to break it down, you can't think about having to win three in a row. It's simple: you go into Nashville, you play your game, get to the game we played in the third period, get to the game we played the other night early and stay with it for 60 minutes or more. Whatever it takes."
On confidence in goaltender Andrew Hammond:
"Well I haven't seen him a lot. He hasn't played a lot, but he's been in twice now and he's done a good job. That's a situation we could possibly be in. I don't know if that is the case yet, but from what I've seen he's been OK."
On message to the team after the second period:
"We got to get in the hunt, that's the key. Everything for me in the first two periods was a little too slow, a little too deliberate, power play was an extension of our 5-on-5 tonight, that's what it was. It's too 'not enough we're going to the net, we're going to score.' It's passing through people, at times, it's too stagnant and that's the way we played coming out of our end. That's when we came and played out through the neutral zone and a little bit in the O-zone too, 5-on-5 for the first two periods. We got to pick up the tempo and have more of the attack mentality like we had in the third period."
On Sven Andrighetto's coincidental minor with Nashville forward Ryan Hartman:
"They said he got his stick in his groin.... area."
On Nashville forward Ryan Hartman's hit on Carl Soderberg:
"They're going to look at it, there is no question. I haven't seen it, happened quick. I didn't look at the replay, we had some other stuff going on the bench. But they'll be looking at that, for sure I would think."
