"People got their money's worth tonight, no question," head coach Jeremy Colliton said after the win. "I thought the overtime was fantastic, and then the shootout, I mean the quality of our guys is - I think Tazer beat the goalie three times. It's unbelievable. It's nice to have those guys. I thought we played well enough that even though we didn't score in overtime, you felt like the hockey gods were going to take care of us."
"A couple times on the bench, with how loud the crowd was, chances going back and forth, especially in overtime, it was exciting," Saad said. "It felt like a playoff game almost. That was a lot of fun."
Chicago jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the opening 25 minutes, but Arizona evened things up before the end of the second with goals from Brad Richardson and Conor Garland.
"That was probably the most exciting game all year, I'd say," Crawford said. "I thought a good job by our guys not to panic after they come back and we had a ton of chances, but (Raanta) played unbelievable tonight. It was nice to get that win in a shootout."
"It's huge," said Saad of the two points. "They made a push and for us it's a huge character win for sticking with it. Sometimes in the past we kind of falter, but that second point is huge, especially in this race."
