BRETT SUTTER ON THE TEAM’S VIBE
“I think we’re feeling good. I thought there was a good vibe out there today. The guys are getting excited. We’ve had a good week of work here… I think we’re ready to go.”
ON GAME 1 VS COACHELLA
“We had a heck of a battle with them all year long. We split the season series, so I am expecting this to be a long series and a hard series. Our whole division, I don’t think it really mattered what team we played we knew we were going to get a tough opponent, but I think it’s fitting that we see these guys.”
“We’re feeling good. There was a good vibe out there today.”

KEVIN ROONEY ON RESETTING AT PRACTICE
“I think the mood is high. We’ve had a couple days of practice to reset after an emotional series against Abbotsford. We’re feeling rested and recovered and ready for this new challenge.”
ON THE DETAILS
“Every inch of the ice is highly contested out there and if you’re still standing at this time of the year, you’ve done things the right way. All the little details in the game will be huge and will get magnified in Round 3.”
