Weber on the team's playoff rookies coming through in the clutch:
"It's fun to watch. Everyone talked before this series started about how much more experience [Pittsburgh] had than us, but I almost thought it was kind of a good thing that maybe these young guys didn't even realize how big of a deal it was. They stepped up. Guys played really well against two of the top centers in the League. There's a lot of work left to do, but I think those guys have taken huge steps, even during the 'pause' for three months. I think they've gotten even better. I'm not sure how without playing games, but obviously they worked at home and skated and they've definitely gotten better and they've been a big help for us."
Julien on what the team learned in the Qualifying Round that they can bring with them to the Conference quarterfinals:
"They're starting to understand how consistency is important. I think we've played four good games. One we lost because they were the better team. This was our fourth game in seven nights and I thought we did an excellent job of defending, we didn't give them much. We knew their backs were against the wall and they were going to be desperate, but I thought defensively we did a good job and we managed to score that goal when we needed it."
