[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]
I feel like when you get to the Stanley Cup final, you have a 50/50 chance of winning.
The underdog thing and the favorite thing really doesn’t mean anything in the locker rooms. You have to go out and play.
- Brad Richards
You try to relax but it’s hard because you know it’s coming.
You know what’s ahead and you’re so excited.
- Henrik Lundqvist
We want to be accountable to each other. We need to be able to look at one another in the eye in the room, and have that guy looking back at us knowing that we gave our all.
And that’s what’s important because we’re in the battle, we’re doing these things and that’s where the team is so close, we know we’ve done that.
- Brian Boyle
I think what I need to do is not have my players focus on the end results, but they need to focus on what needs to be done and they need to focus on the process.
If we do that, and like we’ve done throughout this playoffs, even though a lot of people are not going to give us any chance, I like our chances.
I know L.A. has been there before, I know they’ve won before, I know they’ve gone three Game 7s and they’ve won them all.
They beat the defending Stanley Cup champions, I get that. But we’re going to try real hard. I can promise you that.
- Alain Vigneault
