<p>On how the game unfolded: &#8220;I thought we had a really good first period. Second period, our goalie made some saves. You know what, they&#8217;re playing a free, easy game. And I think the third we show what we&#8217;re capable of doing, just couldn&#8217;t score.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>On sticking to the regular lineup and playing 82 meaningful games:</em> &#8220;We did. Gotta play close games and we&#8217;ve played close games. Hopefully we get a schedule where we don&#8217;t have to play Monday. Bullshit. They set up the schedule, we play three in four to finish the year on the road. Makes sense.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>On Dan Vladar&#8217;s performance:</em> &#8220;That&#8217;s his job. Back-to-backs, backup goalie come in, give yourself, your team a chance to win and he did that.&#8221;</p>
