They said it

"It's been a roller coaster. [The win at Buffalo] will help us mentally moving forward. Even though we're going through a struggle, we're still trying to draw on the positives. You can't control what's happened, you can learn from it. We have to clean up our breakouts, not spend so much time in our own end. We're getting there." -- Panthers coach Bob Boughner
"The reality of the League is you've got to get through adversity and you have to go through this without losing your wits and understand here's what is needed to be done and here is how we have to stop it. You grow through success and grow through adversity and that's the stage we're in right now. The guys have to embrace the challenge; the challenge to get ourselves back on the winning track." -- Devils coach John Hynes
