I am very happy, as far as how all four lines, all six defensemen and the goalie played tonight. The key to us becoming a better team and a competitive team in this league was our work habits and our accountability. And if we lose that, we are an average to a below-average team - as we've seen when we don't work hard.
More Quotes from John Tortorella:
I knew there was going to be a ton of adversity and a lot of ups and downs, and that's what's happened. We've gone through some now for 41 games. Now we have to learn to fight through it and just try to find a way to get points. We are not in a situation where, and I'm trying to stress to the guys, don't look at the standings or projections or this, that or the other thing. We're taking it a game at a time and I think that really has to be our concentration. One game at a time and try to find a way to get points each and every game.John Tortorella
We've played well at times, and other times we haven't. It's having the right answer. If we don't have it, then we're in a major hole.

We have a pretty good idea of who is going to be staying with us.

I just think we have a high-character team. In situations like this, I think you find out about a lot of people. I'm just happy for them that they found a way to get a win in here to make this a series because I don't think a lot of people gave us a chance to win a game.

It's simply about playing as hard as you can and being a tough team to play against. Through 20 men right on through to our goaltender, I thought there was a ton of desperation and fight.
