"Obviously, playing with those guys (Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom), it's more ice time than I've had in the past this season, and I'm trying to take advantage of it. I don't think I did much to help them out there, so I just want to focus on the next game and put this one behind me." -- Capitals forward Andre Burakovsky, who wasn't pleased with his performance playing on the top line despite scoring the game-winning goal
"I thought there were plays to be made, that's what I saw. It's a winnable game." -- Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet
"They're a good team and they can score goals, and they had a little extra push. It's tied 2-2 with five, six minutes left, and we've got to find a way to lock it down. We shouldn't be backing up or doing anything different. We've just got to find a way." -- Coyotes forward Christian Fischer
