<p><em>On how the game unfolded</em>: &#8220;I thought we showed a lot of resolve or resilience. They score into that empty net the first minute of the game and, quite honest with you, I thought we had a good first period. That&#8217;s what I told them after the first, it&#8217;s a winnable for us, for sure tonight. And we damn near did.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>On Chris Tanev&#8217;s return to the lineup</em>: &#8220;You know what, he&#8217;s wanted to play the last two games and I was just at the point where it was basically up to him and the medical staff and then that was it.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>On the two weird goals (the first Oilers goal and the third Flames goal)</em>: &#8220;They got one, we got one, so it&#8217;s 2-2. That&#8217;s the way the game is. It was funny, when the shot was taken I said y&#8217;know i think that puck could go in the net. And it did.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>On the way the Flames played</em>: &#8220;We hung around tonight. We&#8217;re not going to go away easy. And if they thought they were going to beat us easy, that&#8217;s wasn&#8217;t the case.&#8221;</p>
