"You score a few goals and get some puck luck, you get some confidence. You handle the puck with confidence. I think our puck possession time has been way up too over the last few games. That's all part of confidence and scoring goals. We've cleaned up the [defensive] zone a bit. If you're conscious of that, then you're going to get offensive opportunities." -- Senators forward Zack Smith
"I don't think anyone in this room is concerned at all. It's an 82-game season. Not every game is going to be perfect. We've played a lot of good hockey this month. We know how we need to play, and we've just got to make sure we keep working toward the process and the way we want to execute our game plan as best we can." -- Predators forward Ryan Johansen
