"I think it's good to get on the road, especially early in the season. I think it gives our guys a chance to spend more time with each other. You can kind of feel that we've got a good thing going in the locker room and there's certainly a camaraderie that you want. You need to have it to have success." -- Rangers coach David Quinn
"Over those 10 years I don't know that there's been a better, [more] consistent player or performer in the game. I think game in, game out he gives us a lot of offense, has the puck as much as anybody does in the course of a game, so that helps." -- Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville on Patrick Kane
