Corey Perry stated, “I’ll take them whenever I can get them. It’s nice to see them go in. It doesn’t matter when. It’s a matter of getting shots on net. When I saw I had an opening to the net, I kind of knew what I wanted to do.”

“We’re all pissed off and we’re down. We’re allowed to feel those emotions. We’re allowed to feel that way, but we’ve got to come back with a game that’s that much better at home, and we can do that. We believe we could play with this team from day one, so we’ll go home and regroup. Our guys have done a tremendous job all season, and we showed it again tonight. We weren’t very happy with what happened in Edmonton, and we responded with a hell of a game. We’re going to do the same thing. We have the ability to do that really well,” said Todd Mclea. The Ducks lost their 3rd playoff game, 2-1 to the Nashville Predators on Thursday, May 19. The Anaheim Ducks play again Saturday, May 21.  The  Ducks are currently in the playoffs, and  have been doing amazing so far. They have been  winning more games than usual.

“I don’t know if there is a recipe or something you can hang your hat on other than you can’t quit believing when you’re in any situation. Momentum swings in the playoffs are so drastic and they mean so much….We just found a way to will it across the line at the end. It’s a great achievement for our players and we should feel good about ourselves, but the next one will be the toughest one in their building.”- Head coach Randy Carlyle. One of the head players stated that: “When you’re playing in a playoff series, it’s about sticking with it and staying with the things you’re doing. We had a lot of looks early that we didn’t bury and obviously they did. We had some opportunities at the end and it was great to get that win.¨  ¨We did whatever we had to do. We scratched and clawed at the end and found a way to get back into that game to give ourselves an opportunity,” said Ryan Getzlaf
