Postgame Quotes
Anaheim Ducks
Ryan Getzlaf
On if he was worried Terry wouldn't find him with the pass
No. Great vision Troy has. He just told me that he was really close to not passing it to me. I don't know, but I'm glad he did.
On being able to pull off a win like that
We need to start on time, that's our focus right now. Coming out of that one, that's our mentality going into tomorrow and into Sunday's (game). We gotta start starting games on time. We are doing too much in the first period that is uncharacteristic of our group right now.
On Markstrom lunging with a pokecheck
Panic sets in. Try and get around him. That's the only play there obviously when he's coming out is to make sure I get that puck as wide as I can and then it's easy from there.
John Gibson
On facing 40 shots
It's my job. I'm the goalie. Gotta save the shots, whether it's 10 or 50, so I'm used to it.
On shutting down Vancouver's power play
I think we've been executing our game plan. We've got a lot of practice recently which hasn't been a good thing but when we get the opportunities, we take pride in it. Obviously we want to be able to shut down some of the top units in the league and they've been a top unit. I thought everybody did a good job. It's not just one guy, it's the whole unit and however many guys are killing that night.
Head coach Dallas Eakins
On tonight's game
We certainly weren't ready to start. For whatever reason, we came out of the gate slow and we were actually anticipating a much better start after a couple good days of practice. We were able to hold the fort, especially with Gibby.
On Terry's pass to Getzlaf in OT
It was a heck of a pass, and great on Getzy to settle that down and have ice in his veins with that goalie coming out at him like that. So, it's certainly one. It feels good to get the win, but we definitely have got to do something differently to start these games.
Vancouver Canucks
Adam Gaudette
On getting the game to overtime
It's good to get a point. I thought we played a pretty good game. The penalty kill did a really good job out there. We played hard, did well, just couldn't get a few more goals out there.
On their high amount of shots
I guess the puck just wasn't going in tonight. Overall, I thought it was a pretty good game, had tons of chances, just couldn't bury more and come out with two points there.
Brandon Sutter
On getting a point in the game being down late
It was a really, really solid game from us. Not much to dwell on, there was maybe a three- or four-minute spot at the end of the second we got a little bit loose and gave up some chances. Other than that, we were pretty good.
On believing they can come back in games
We don't seem to sit back at all, seems like we're able to keep pushing. Tonight after 40 minutes we liked where our game was at a lot.
Head coach Travis Green
On the overall game
It's good hockey, we played well today. I think we had almost 70 shot attempts. Obviously could've scored three or four in the first period easily. Pretty good game, good road game, good to get a point.
On believing they can come back in games
I think it depends on the game. The way the game was tonight I felt, I think we felt good. We were playing good. Could've had a few more goals easily. Their goalie played well. I think you just gotta stick with it.
