Jay Pandolfo Quotations

I don't think anyone would have imagined that.

He has his problems, just like everyone else has problems. I think he always overcame them.

He never ceases to amaze you. He keeps breaking records and he never lets up.

He doesn't say anything. I don't know if he's frustrated or not. Hopefully he gets frustrated. We want him to get frustrated. That's what we're trying to do.

The answer's going to be tomorrow night, if we come out to play against Buffalo. We can't be inconsistent.

We're up 3-0, but the fourth game is always the toughest one to win. You want to finish them off as fast as you can because once they win a game, they're dangerous.

When he gets the puck on his stick, it's not easy to get it off. He's a big guy, a strong guy, a skilled guy. He's got everything. You just have to try to limit the time he has with it.

At this point in the season, you'd like to have a (secure) playoff spot. We put ourselves in a tough situation.

Special teams in the playoffs are always huge. The power play and penalty kill are always going to win you games, especially if they keep calling penalties like this and there's going to be a lot of them.

This game was obviously on NBC. Maybe that had something to do with it.

At this point, we really need the two points. That would have been a tough point to give up.

I think 50 percent of their goals go through him, so you have to do everything you can to try to shut him down.

They work a lot harder than they used to. They just came out off the bat and were all over us just like last game. For some reason we weren't ready and getting in a hole like that 3-0 in the first period is tough to come back from.

It just seems like they're working a lot harder than they used to.

It's tough to make a change if you're going good.

It's nice also to get a win, though, when you go on the road.

It's easier to match lines when you're on home ice, definitely.

It's going to be a battle. It's going to be a lot of fun. Both teams are playing well. Both teams have got winning streaks going. Both have the exact same record.

They're obviously one of the top teams in the league, so you've got to be ready for those guys. It's going to be a big game for us. We've been struggling a little bit lately. We got a win against Pitt, but these are the big games we have to be ready for.

He basically said if we stop playing the way they want to play - run and gun - and play the way we play, we'll be fine.
