"I thought for a few games a couple of weeks ago, he was coming. The last game, to me, it just wasn't good enough. He's trying. But it's just not quick enough right now as far as his pace." -- Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella on forward Boone Jenner, who has one goal in his past 15 games
"There's still 29 games left. It's a little bit early to throw in the towel and say we can beat [Columbus] tonight and then not worry about them. You can't do that. You've got to keep playing, especially against divisional opponents that can be streaky." -- Capitals forward Tom Wilson on possibly sweeping the Blue Jackets this week
