They said it

"They're quick in transition so we've got to make sure we do a good job with the puck and then know how to check when we don't have it. And their starts have been good and our starts haven't been as good as we'd like, so we'd like to focus on that here tonight." -- Flames coach Bill Peters
"In the games I've watched on TV they're a fast team and they don't wait around anymore. They go after the game the way we do, and it definitely shows in their record and the way they play." -- Canadiens forward Jonathan Drouin
