More Quotes from John Tortorella:
I don't think we were playing that well. They're a quick, loose, young team and we were having problems generating chances, problems with their speed. Then we started to do the little things and we won a hockey game. So as much of a grind as it was, we still found a way and that's what I liked about our team tonight.John Tortorella
We're playing a pretty good hockey team and Ottawa deserves credit. I've never seen a team that is so opportunistic. You make a mistake and they make it end up in the net. They make you pay. If we're going to win this game, we have to be at our best.

I won't have to say a word to him about that. We have felt, since he has been with the organization, this kid is going to be a captain someday. He handles himself at such a young age as a pro, and I feel that's the ultimate compliment to a player. He's got some great leadership qualities as far as how he carries himself - not his words - but just how he carries himself and that's very important.

I think this is a great opportunity for John Grahame, who has been spitting bullets at me since he got here to be a No. 1. But you know what, it's not going to be me making the decisions, it's going to be them making the decision for the team, and that's the most important thing.

Sean has played well at a very important time of year. Johnny will get a start. If we can get the two of them going, it's a good problem to have.
John Tortorella
We're very pleased with that. That's the way it works. You give people opportunities and they try to make the best of it.
