“We got our asses kicked all over the ice."

-Rene Bourque of the Montreal Canadiens

“We were not ready, mentally, physically, to compete in a game like that."

-Michel Therrien, head coach of the Montreal Canadiens

“All over the ice they beat us. They worked hard. They were on the puck, they were aggressive, they were hungry. We weren’t ready, it’s as simple as that. We come ready to play, it’s a different game.

“That’s not our hockey team that played today.”

-P.K. Subban of the Montreal Canadiens
