"We have to take away their time and space and get to our game. That's what we always talk about. When we do that, we look like a pretty good team. And when we don't, we're throwing caution to the wind and you never know what could happen." -- Hurricanes coach Rod Brind'Amour
"It's actually pretty different each night in the NHL. Some nights you play against a team and you're like, 'Holy cow, I don't know what I was doing out there, I didn't have any space.' And then the next night, against the same team, can be a little bit different. It's just kind of how you feel. It's definitely a streaky league. You've got to just find a way to make yourself feel good every day." -- Senators forward Ryan Dzingel
