"It's going to be a tough one. It's a tough building to play in and they're going to come after us pretty hard." -- Islanders captain Anders Lee
"Right now, I think in order to turn things around you need to play really, really well and we're going to need a little bit of puck luck. I've won a Stanley Cup (with the Boston Bruins in 2011) and I can stand here and tell you that had we not had any puck luck, we wouldn't have won a Stanley Cup. So that's part of the game, and there are certain things you can control, and certain things you can't. All we can control right now is our effort and then playing well and hoping that along the way maybe the bounce goes your way versus against you." -- Canadiens coach Claude Julien
