Post-game Quotes | |
Alain Vigneault on his 700th NHL coaching win: “I’ve worked for great organizations. Look where I am now. Had some great GMs. Guys that really had my back. Those GMs gave me some real good teams and I’m very fortunate…I’m working on that one thing I don’t have yet.” Shayne Gostisbehere: “Three games vs. Pittsburgh is a good test for us. We started this trip on a good note but we want to keep it rolling.” Carter Hart: “The biggest thing for me was just having more fun…Just hanging with the boys and sharing laughs makes it easier coming to the rink everyday.” Quotes courtesy of Philadelphia Flyers |
