Player quotes

Patrick O’Sullivan
“After that tough start, we knew that’s not what our team was about. To come back here with these wins, we’re really showing that this organization is going in the right direction.”

“Barbs is playing unbelievable right now for us. That’s who he is. He really is a good goalie. I played with him last year and know what he’s capable of doing.”

“It’s nice to see we didn’t pout about being in the situation we were in. We battled back, got back to .500 here and we’re just going to keep building on this.”

Jason LaBarbera
“Right now, I’m just calm, I’m relaxed, I’m not worrying about things and the puck is hitting me.”

On stopping the wrap around in the third period: “It was a mad scramble. They got about three shots on the left side of the net. I knew I was stuck and he was going to wrap it so I scrambled over and threw my stick over. Luckily, he didn’t take a step and get it up high. He tried to stuff it and my stick got there, and that was a big save.”

“We knew we had the players here. It was just a matter of coming together as a team and trusting each other. At the beginning of the year, we didn’t trust each other and I think we learned from that.”

“We worked hard in practice, the coaches did a good job of preparing us and, for whatever reason, it wasn’t clicking. We didn’t really know what we were doing as a group. Once we got that win against Minnesota in the shootout, you could kind of see in our faces a little more confidence and it just carried on from there.”
