COACHES QUOTES: Jason Kalin (Sup): "It was a great game to be at; it was back and forth the whole game. The kids on both teams played well." "We lost defenseman Steve Murray for the last half of the game; he had to leave for a family wedding, and that hurt us. We played with three defensemen in the third period and when they scored the winning goal, our defensemen were so tired. They just ran out of gas."
Tom Bernhardt (ECN)(on Goalie Justin Strehlau): "Justin kept us in it. Like I've said, Justin plays great in games like this where he's tested."
