"Ritter bailed us out numerous times. A real good performance by him. … He's worked hard, he's got a great attitude, he's an unbelievable teammate. Without him tonight, it's a different story. That was a real big two points and it's on his back."
Peters on Hathaway's first goal:
"That gave us a little bit of momentum, but the fact we started to skate a little bit more in the second period than we had earlier in the game helped us. For whatever reason, when they pushed, we just didn't handle it very well in the third."
Gaudreau on hitting the 300-point mark:
"It's cool. It's a cool accomplishment. I'm excited the team won, obviously, but it makes it that much better with a team win."
Gaudreau on the work Rittich has put in:
"He's a good goaltender. He performed really well tonight. I was happy to see it. He's a good teammate, doesn't get as many games as he probably would like, but when he gets in there, he steps up."
Hathaway on Rittich:
"It got a little loose in the third, but that's when Ritter comes in and plays lights out."
Hathaway on the work of his line tonight:
"It started with our forecheck. That's a big thing that we wanted to focus on. You see Janks (Mark Jankowski) and Doobs (Dillon Dube), and how well they work down low, how evasive they are. Then you see the D keeping it in and making moves at the blueline to get it to the net. If we keep working like that, it's going to go well for us."
