Game 1
“If you don’t play the type of style we played tonight, you just won’t beat them.”
-Andrew Cogliano
Game 2
“I think it’s safe to say that we understand that we need to be a lot better. We found a way to squeak one out because we have the best goalie in the world in our goal.”
-Dustin Brown
Game 3
“The reason Selanne has almost 700 goals is because he goes to the net and he stops and that’s where the puck was and that’s why he put it in.”
-Bruce Boudreau
Game 4
“I don’t even know if I’m going to play the next game.”
-John Gibson
Game 5
“He’s the best goalie I’ve ever seen. I can’t believe we got one by him tonight. A lot of pressure on him now. A lot of pressure on him.”
-Darryl Sutter
Game 6
“You dress 20 guys, you’re playing against 20 guys. I don’t know if home ice is that big of a deal.”
-Jonathan Quick
Game 7
“A lot of guys said that they respect everything that I’ve done in my career. It was a pleasure to play against them and hear all the classy things. Obviously, I know those guys very well. Even during the lockout we were skating together and I’ve been playing golf with those guys. There is a lot of respect between us. Even though we compete so hard and it’s a war out there, but after all when it’s over we’re all good buddies. That’s why this game is so special, a lot of class. That’s what I’m going to miss – these guys and this lifestyle. There is nothing like it.”
