"We've had different guys pitch in all year and he's been producing all year. The way that line has been playing, they stick to their role, eating away tough minutes against tough players, a lot of [defensive]-zone starts, at different times [penalty kill], and they've still found a way to get offense. It's good. All three of them do a great job and it's much-needed." -- Capitals goaltender Braden Holtby on Daniel Winnik, Jay Beagle and Tom Wilson
"I mean, we certainly knew what was happening. We were letting them hang around. That's what happens. It just takes one. It just takes something to happen for them to say, 'You know what, we can win this game.' I thought we started well but weren't able to finish. Certainly something we need to work on, but something we can learn from and something that I know that we knew was occurring at the time." -- Capitals forward Justin Williams
"I think everyone knows that's his spot. It's just funny how the puck ends up getting there and no one's close to him. I think our penalty kill after that did an unbelievable job keeping it at one. I don't think we were happy with how we played that one, but from there on forward, we kill off a four-minute one in the second there and another big one in the third. So, other than that, our penalty killers were fantastic." -- Coyotes goaltender Mike Smith on Alex Ovechkin's power-play goal
