"[Forward William Nylander] is playing great. I think we've kind of rekindled that chemistry that we've had our first two years playing together. [Forward Andreas Johnsson] has been a really nice addition just because he works so hard, he's so good at getting under guys, even in front of the net for a small guy, he's not afraid to go into corners and battle and come out with pucks." -- Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews on his line's recent success
"If you're going to play a trade-chances game, then that's not in our best interest. We have to be a team that really works for our chances, that surrounds the pucks, that supports the puck and that makes supporting plays in the offensive zone. And if we do that, that's where we're at our best." -- Senators coach Marc Crawford
