"He's just hungry ... It's impressive ... he's playing with a sense of urgency & wants to do great things"
Someone get the man a sandwich.
Babcock didn’t like the first ten minutes, and no one did, but he like most of us watching thought Ozhiganov had a good game.
Lars Eller on the Maple Leafs: "We were just playing against Crosby and Malkin, so everything kind of drops off from there. It's not that special, to be honest. It's a good team, like a lot of others. They'll probably be a playoff team, I would think."

Kuznetsov on his sweet goal: “I looked for the pass, but then I don’t know what happened. I decide to shoot, and I think that’s pretty lucky shot.”
