Rick DiPietro Game Quotations

Guys weren't happy with the last game and how we came out. But that's over, and this win is going to be a good stepping stone for us.

This is playoff type hockey. Every game feels like a must win, especially with the current situation that we're in. Disappointing. Obviously we needed these two points. But, they (games) just keep getting more and more important.

I don't know if the league expected it to be this fast and upbeat, ... I don't know if it was just this series - how pumped up the guys were. But every game you see now is 35 shots and 10 power plays. It's a whole new game and I hope the fans are enjoying it.

It just seems like that kind of stuff has happened to us in the third period when we have a lead. Hopefully, we can use this game as a turning point in the season.

You don't want to get pulled in a game whether you make the Olympic team or not.

I feel happy that we got the two points, ... It was an exciting game to be a part of.
