“ We found each other tonight. (Gaborik and Hagelin) skate so good so if I can get just a little time with the puck I can throw it into areas and they jump on it, just like tonight. It forces me to play with pace, and I have to keep up with them. ”
- Brad Richards
“ It's a lot of fun just being able to play with those two guys, and creating a lot of chances together is also a lot of fun. Obviously it could have been intimidating for me playing with those two guys, but I saw it as an exciting opportunity instead. ”
- Carl Hagelin
“ It's a lot of fun when you can put up a lot of scoring chances like we did, and score goals, important goals. When we are doing that we are not spending a lot of time in our zone, which is good, too. We just have to build on this. ”
- Marian Gaborik
