SAY WHAT: 'LEAVING EVERYTHING ON THE ICE'

ANDREW MANGIAPANE ON REMATCH:

ON PLAYING ON THE TOP LINE TONIGHT:

"I feel if you're on the first line, you might be facing tougher opponents, but whenever you're out there, you've got to play the right way whether it's first (line), fourth, whatever it is. You always have to have good puck management and play the right way."

GEOFF WARD ON MANGIAPANE'S GAME:

"We've talked about it many times, but the one thing you know you're getting with him, you're going to get work. He's leaving everything out on the ice every night. He gives himself an opportunity based on his awareness in the game and his work ethic. He gives himself an opportunity to allow his skill to come out. Those things have become habits for him now. He's very comfortable away from the puck as a young player, and because of that he's getting an opportunity to play with it more. The one thing Mang really takes pride in is becoming a complete player. I think the biggest thing for him, in the summer, is that he goes home and works on what he perceives to be his weaknesses. I think all good players do that. Guys become comfortable sometimes just working on their strengths, making sure they're in place, but with Mang, he takes great pride in rounding his game out. He goes home in the summer and works on weaknesses, so when he comes back for training camp, he's better in areas that he's set out for himself. And certainly, he's done that this year."

ON DILLON DUBE'S AVAILABILITY:

"We're going to see at game time exactly where he's at. He's close. ... If it was playoffs, he'd be playing tonight. So, we'll see where he's sitting just prior to game time."

ON PRE-SCOUTING IN THE NORTH DIVISION:

"The time commitment is still there. We still do our due diligence within our division, absolutely. It's not like we're not watching games or not going over video. We absolutely are. We just don't have to spend time on the other (24) teams. We can just enjoy the games at night without having to dive into what they're doing. That's for way down the road. It allows you to be a little bit of a fan at the same time, but yeah, we're spending an awful lot of time right now trying to figure this all out so we're ready to play our next opponent. And then, of course, the adjustment game - much like you have in the playoffs - comes into play once you get into a series in a particular homestand or road trip."
