SAY WHAT: 'THAT'S WHY WE'RE IN A PLAYOFF SPOT'

DILLON DUBE ON HIS PLAY OF LATE:

ON INDIVIDUAL SUCCESS:

"That's the most important thing, that every guy is feeling that way going into it. Our first goal was getting into the playoffs and now it's to be playing our best hockey. Individually, every guy has got to take it upon themselves to be at their best and that's what every guy wants to do right now. If we're feeling good these next seven games, it's just going to carry over (into the playoffs)."

COLEMAN ON CLINCHING A PLAYOFF SPOT:

"It's a good feeling to see the 'X' by the name. It's what you look forward to when you start the year, is making the playoffs. Step 1 is done but you don't want to stumble into the playoffs - you want to be playing your best, so tonight is our first game to right the ship and make sure we're trending the right way for playoffs here."

DARRYL SUTTER ON QUICK ROAD TRIP:

"A lot of games in a short period of time. Back to backs, twice in the next two weeks, and we've played every other day since last Monday. We play a lot of games in a short period of time."

ON BENCHMARK OF 35 GOALS FROM THE BLUELINE:

"They've accomplished that and that's why we're in a playoff spot with two weeks left - the accomplishments of individual players in a team concept.
"The reason we're in a playoff spot is because individuals have maximized their skill-set and then the team's goals-against is second or third in the league, so that's how you become a playoff team."

ON GAUDREAU'S YEAR:

He plays the whole game, for sure, a more consistent player. In his own way, a more demanding player, also, of how his linemates are playing, which is a big... Something that I've really noticed him.
