SEAN MONAHAN ON FINISHING UP THE ROAD TRIP:

ON BOUNCING BACK FROM LAST NIGHT:

"You've got to look at yourself, look who you're matching up against. It comes down to those one-on-one battles in games. You've got to look yourself in the mirror and figure out a way to be better and take accountability for it.
"I've got to step up. I've got to start producing and that's on me."

ON GETTING BACK IN THE WIN COLUMN:

"I thought we had a pretty good start to the season. Right now, we're off track a little bit, but we've got to get back on. ... Now, come game day, you've got to be ready to go and there's no excuses."

"We've got to come out with an emotional game"

NOAH HANIFIN ON SNAPPING TWO-GAME SLIDE:

"I think everyone's got more in them. It's in the room that we can rise to that level and be a challenging team to play against. We've all got to look ourselves in the mirror and challenge each other to get to that level. ... We've got some time until our next game against Ottawa, so it's a good opportunity to lay it all on the line.
"I think when you lose games, obviously there are lessons to be learned. Playing Tampa, Florida and Carolina tonight, they're some of the top teams in the league and we want to be a top team, we've got to play at that level. They're challenging teams, but when everyone steps up - and we've seen it in the past - we can play at that level. We've just got to play with emotion. We haven't had our best game in the past few, so it's a good opportunity to redeem ourselves."

DARRYL SUTTER ON TOUGH SCHEDULE THIS YEAR:

"You've just got to look at the record. You're going to have times during your season on the road that you're going to have games that you don't like and games that you do like, but you've just got to reset and move on for the next one."

"We want to get a good effort from our club"

ON FACING THE HURRICANES TONIGHT:

"They've built a team - again - that's fit for a playoff run. They're not a one-line team, they don't just rely on a goalie or their checking to win. They have a really good balance and they've got no problem playing four lines and have really good special teams... They don't give up much. That's what these teams do. We've seen it in Florida and we've seen it in Tampa.
"They're three really similar teams, to be quite honest. A little change system-wise, but they're really similar teams in how they play."
