Say What - 'Play A Tight Game'

Tanev on the ability to rally from deficits:

"Obviously we want to play with the lead, and come out better than we did last game, that’s obviously the goal. But if you end up in those situations, for sure it’s nice to know you’re able to get out of them."

On keys to success on the road:

"I think it’s playing simple, playing to our strengths, staying out of the box, capitalizing on the powerplays that we get. I feel like the recipe for success on the road is, you’ve got win special teams, play a tight game and not give the opponent too much."

Zary on the team's recent style of play:

"I think we’re playing with a bit of purpose and attacking our game, I think obviously every team wants to play in the offensive zone, I think that’s what we’re trying to do, just spend less time in the D zone, get out quick and play to our structure. The more time we can spend up the ice is good for us."

On starting the four-game road trip in Seattle:

"It’s a great place to play, really nice building and the atmosphere was great a couple weeks ago; I think you just feed off that, even being the away team there’s stuff you can feed off, and look forward. I think you’ve just got to be comfortable, no matter where you’re playing, and kind of attack at it."

Duehr on his mindset for tonight's contest:

"For myself, just go out there and play a confident, fast, physical game, stick to my strengths, get in on the forecheck and I think I’ll be fine."

On the team's ability to manage emotions:

"I feel like the team’s done a great job the whole season, whether it’s winning or losing, being even-keeled; the group’s got a lot of confidence and I’m going to try and bring another element to that tonight."

Huska on getting offensive contributions from the blue line:

"It’s a conscious effort, but it’s just kind of happened at the same time. We want them more active, more involved offensively, to try to get them moving a little more, that’s one of the strengths we think our team has, and early on in the year we were very stationary in the offensive zone. I think over the last number of games, we’ve been getting better at getting some more motion, and that’s allowed them to have the puck, or shoot the puck more."

On Coleman's play:

"This is the best I’ve seen him play, for us, in my opinion. He’s been engaged, he’s playing with pace and he’s playing to his identity. When he plays that way, he finds himself in chances to score. We’ve talked a lot about the connection that him and Mikael have, they play really well together, but I think a lot of it for him is he had a couple long years, with long playoff runs, his body was banged up a little bit. He’s had a chance to recover, a touch now, and he’s feeling really good about himself, and he’s playing the way we need him to play."
