They said it

"They're very well structured, they play hard, they play a team game. When I first came into the League with the Devils, that's how we played, and I'm very comfortable with that." -- Islanders defenseman Andy Greene
"It's details, right, and we lacked that this month. Our identity slipped away, and we knew that. We got to get back to this type of hockey, the games where everyone contributes. We've just got to embrace who we are." -- Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet
