15 Quotes by Marc Denis

We found our legs, we found our game, in the third period. That's what really matters. We got the game-tying goal. The rest of the way, we battled. You could probably put a question mark on the way we came out in this game, but in the third and in overtime our effort was second to none.

Usually it has to do with work ethic and decision-making. You don?t get skated for mistakes. But if you?re making bad decisions and the effort is there for 60 minutes, that?s what the message is.

We're playing desperate teams every night this time of year. It is a measuring stick. We're working on putting down the blueprint for next season. To get to where we want to be, this is how we have to play. I think we're starting to understand that now.

(Minnesota and Nashville) are definitely measuring sticks and they have been since we?re here. Realistically, Nashville has been in the league two years before us, and I think our organization would be thrilled to be where they are in two years.

I was glad I could face one of the best players in the NHL one-on-one to decide the game, that's a thrill right there. That's why the shootout is such a big deal with the fans and that's why I think the players are fans of it too.

I was glad I could face one of the best players in the NHL 1-on-1 to decide the game, that's a thrill right there. That's why the shootout is such a big deal with the fans and that's why I think the players are fans of it too.

We got off to a textbook first period, played the way we wanted. Unfortunately, for some reason we sat back and it definitely was not the way we wanted to end that game.

This says a lot to come into this building and play the game the way we did, and I think we frustrated them at times.

There's immense trust and confidence in our ability to come back in any game.
