"I just think we have talked it to death. We've had two very important meetings. Rhetoric is great, you feel great about what they said. There's conflict, there's all things that go on in these meetings, but you air it out. Now you have to try and help yourself … you need to change your game to some sort of level that you're helping the team." -- Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella
"We haven't played desperate hockey, but we should be. I mean, we're out of a playoff spot. There's no panic or anything like that, but you got to get back to winning hockey. You got to put yourself back in a position to be in the postseason. We got to stop the bleeding, and we have to do that tonight." -- Avalanche forward Gabriel Landeskog
