SAY WHAT: 'EXCITING FOR OUR GROUP'

DILLON DUBE ON THE LIGHTNING:

COACH DARRYL SUTTER ON TAMPA:

"To win a championship, they changed the way they play. It gets overlooked. They got a lot bigger on the backend and they got bigger up front without dropping off any of their skill set. Big and fast is still the mantra to winning championships."

TREVOR LEWIS ON IMPORTANT CHALLENGE:

"We know that they got a great powerplay, they got a great veteran presence and they know how to win, so we're trying to make sure we learn how to win and these are the big games that we need to come out and be prepared."

BRETT RITCHIE ON HIS RETURN:

"It's good to get back in the lineup with the guys and Darryl trusts me to come in after a long absence. I thought I worked pretty hard to make sure that I'd be ready for game action. I'm just looking to keep moving that needle forward."
