Jets Quotes
Head Coach Paul Maurice
"Even if your penalty kill is outstanding, it's eight minutes of high sticking penalties in the second period. Maybe it'll give you a better chance to win, but
our penalty killing is clearly a problem for us. But we go 10 minutes in that second period and we're right and we're on the game and then we really get
the ice tilted and then we spend the rest of the period in the penalty box."
Blake Wheeler
"They do a good job of clogging it up, especially after they get a lead. I think there was some good things going on and then, just the penalties kinda took
away from some momentum in the second period and the penalty kill wasn't good enough and we just weren't able to mount anything to come back."
Flames Quotes
Head Coach Glen Gulutzan
"It's real good. I thought Elliot was really good tonight. I didn't think we were as good as we needed to be. But we were as good as our game there, but
our power play helped us a lot. Thought [Backlund's] line was good but Elliot sure was solid."
Brian Elliott
"We know they like to carry the puck in, and they don't like to dump too many pucks, and our guys did a great job standing up. And our forwards didn't get
too deep on the forecheck to come back and help those D have good gap. It's not that crazy of a recipe, but it worked for us tonight."
