March 4 postgame quotes: Jonathan Bernier

On his career success against Nashville:
“Yeah, I’ve been successful against them, that’s for sure. But when you give up 20 shots or something like that, you’ve got to make sure you make those big saves and keep the team in it. We found a way to score that one, and kept going from thereafter.”

On staying mentally sharp with so few shots against:
“I’m just trying to stay focused, and obviously when you don’t get too many shots you’re just hoping you’re not going to get a breakaway right away. But we did an awesome job – our F3 was really high tonight, and we actually created a lot of offense with that.”

Generally speaking, on whether having good stats against a particular team is more than a coincidence:
“I think it’s obviously as a goalie, it’s all about confidence, and I guess I’m pretty confident when I play against Nashville. It’s been that way.”

On Jeff Carter:
“He’s been unbelievable for us scoring some big goals. We need a guy like that that takes over, and he’s doing it right now.”

On how quickly the cadence of the game changed:
“It was 5-1 like [that]. Our F3, like I said earlier, was really, really good, and that’s how we create a lot of chances like that. We got our chances and we buried. That’s the game, I guess.”
