Say What - 'Wasn't Our Night'

Rasmus Andersson on the setback to the Rangers:

"We came out flat, our first period was flat; how many grade-A’s did Marky save in the first? Second period, I mean maybe a little bit better but still not good enough. Third, obviously for them to have a one-goal lead, we started pushing a little bit, (got) a few good looks but don’t manage to get it in."

Mikael Backlund on the loss:

"Marky played really well for us, kept us in the game in the first. Pretty tight game after that; we had some looks too, but gave up too much than we want, they’re a highly-skilled team. But we had some looks too, wasn’t our best game, we all know that, but it was tight until the end."

On taking six of eight points from the road trip:

"It’s hard to lose and it sucks, but going into this trip, if we say we (were) going to go 3-1, we’d be pretty happy going into the trip, and all the teams we were playing coming out of the break. We played some good hockey, now we gotta go home and pick it up again."

Blake Coleman on Jacob Markstrom's performance:

"Helluva game by Marky. He was our best player all night, and it sucks we couldn’t pull one out for him."

On the loss and the road trip overall:

"We had a chance to sweep the road trip and put ourselves in a really good spot. For whatever reason, it wasn’t our night tonight and Marky gave us a chance in a game we didn’t really deserve, but we’ll take three wins on the trip, we won’t sit on this one, and we’ll go home and take care of business."

Ryan Huska on the game overall:

"Really slow start, they were skating, we weren’t I thought in the first period. Jacob kept us in the game in the first period, for sure; I thought we got a little bit better as the game went on. Their goaltender played well too, tonight, he made some good saves at key times for them."

On winning three of four games on the trip:

"These are tough buildings to play in; you’re coming home above .500, that’s a good thing for us. We have to make sure that our next game, as we always talk about, is our most important one."
