Krug, who returned after missing five straight games with injury, on his OT winner: "I wanted to come up obviously a little bit slower, see what my options were, came up the left side a little to mess with [Zach] Parise's gap, and once I took a couple hard strides and realized I could beat him - parting of the sea - and [Brad] Marchand and [Patrice] Bergeron drew some attention as well, and all of a sudden I was in alone so that's kind of the thought process. I felt some pressure, felt like I was going on my backhand the whole time and figured I was going fast enough that maybe the five-hole was open. Luckily, it squeaked in eventually."
Krejci on potting two goals in 48 seconds to tie the game: "We've all been in that situation before. All six guys on the ice, we've been here for a long time. Once in a while we practice that and even if you don't, we all know each other and what we can do. When there's six of us against four guys…experience for sure [pays off]."
Bruce Cassidy on the Bruins' battling through seven penalty kills:"I've never seen a game like that where you're [given] seven in a row when it's a close game. Typically, the game gets out of hand, you've got roughing calls, you start acting goofy…but we got our [power plays] at the end, same [calls], trippings. That's what we got nailed for early, so it came around to us…it disrupts you. I think it gives the other team juice, especially if they score. Their best players are touching the puck a lot, so it's tough. But we got through it."
