"It's been like that for a month or so. We know we can't lose a game ... We have to keep this little ball rolling. If we don't, come playoff time we'll be on the outside looking in."


Josh Harding Mar 17 2010 9:49 PM from Sporting News

"When they tied it up, we did not sit back on our heels ... You can say it was an ugly win, but we will take the two points and that is all that matters."


Jason Arnott Mar 17 2010 9:49 PM from Sporting News

"Should be for a good game ... Two teams that (had) disappointing losses, both teams obviously want to get back at it and have a good game."


Roberto Luongo Mar 17 2010 9:20 PM from Sporting News

"We weren't really respecting the opposition"


Roberto Luongo Mar 17 2010 9:20 PM from Sporting News

"He told us before the game he wasn’t going to do too much ... It’s just good to have him on the sidelines with us. Even though he can’t say much the message is getting to us."


Carmelo Anthony Mar 17 2010 8:22 PM from The National Newspaper

"We've got a team where everybody complements each other really well"


Matthew Lombardi Mar 17 2010 7:50 PM from Sporting News

"For me it's a skewed record because of the shootout situation ... It's great for the players. It's great any time you can set a record. They'll have that in their back pocket for the rest of their lives."


Dave Tippett Mar 17 2010 7:50 PM from Sporting News

"We’re just trying to get up and down and just playing ... More importantly, everybody’s just been moving the ball, passing the ball. Our assists have been up. If we get double-teamed we’re kicking it out to shooters."


Chauncey Billups Mar 17 2010 7:16 PM from Covers

"It’s a short-term situation that we’re in ... Quite frankly, the eight players that we have are better than anyone we could bring in. This gives them an opportunity to play extended minutes. It’s something we’re going to continue..."


Jeff Bower Mar 17 2010 7:16 PM from Covers

"There's been times when I've got frustrated over shots and wanted to get the ball ... But I wasn't on a good team. This time, I'm a veteran. All that matters is winning. I'm on a good a team, a playoff team, a team that's..."
