"That'll depend on how long [Semyon Varlamov] is going to be out, which is unclear at this point. (Bernier) has been real patient, he's been a real good teammate, hard worker, and has kept himself ready and when [Varlamov] has been out [Bernier] has stepped up and done great. So we're going to treat him like our starter now. If he plays well he'll continue to go, and if he struggles we'll probably give him a chance to bounce back just like we would with [Varlamov]." -- Avalanche coach Jared Bednar on how much he plans to play Jonathan Bernier
"Momentum is huge. It's the extra player on your team. I don't know that (if there's a way to bottle momentum). I don't know that yet. I would say that's hard to gauge, we're going to find out, but there was good energy today, so it wasn't like we were starting over. We had a meeting this morning that was very brief, we made some adjustments, a couple things technically on our team that we want to see better." -- Stars coach Ken Hitchcock on carrying momentum after a six-day break
