Ponikarovsky postgame quotes

Alexei Ponikarovsky’s postgame thoughts…

(on responding after being dropped to the fourth line…)
PONIKAROVSKY: “Well basically, I know what needs to be done. I just have to put my mind in it. It’s the coaches’ decision, and they have to do whatever they can to improve the team. So that’s basically the call from the coaching staff, and you have to do stuff on a consistent basis. You just have to react to it and play hard and continue to do that.”

PONIKAROVSKY: “Yeah, it was a good effort by the whole team. Everybody worked hard and digged in and basically won the battles along the boards. We knew that Nashville played last night and we had to get on them right away, in their end, and get them tired.”
