#FlyTogether
More LaCombe:
“We had to get our legs going a little bit more. A little slow in the first and second there, but we got it going at the end of the second. In the third, I thought we did a great job just getting pucks behind them and using our legs and our speed.”
#FlyTogether
Jackson LaCombe on tonight’s performance:
“It’s good to have (resiliency), but we’ve got to get better starts because we can't play every game down like that. It's just not gonna work. But proud of the effort in the third.”
#FlyTogether
Sennecke on the team scoring five goals on Connor Hellebuyck:
“He’s one of the best goalies in the world, so you're probably not going to beat him clean. So you just want to create a rebound and get bodies at the net. That’s how we scored those two goals.”
#FlyTogether
Beckett Sennecke on tonight’s performance:
“We just have that belief in ourselves that we're never out of it. And I think that's kind of the biggest thing in these comeback wins, is we never think we're out of it and we know we can score goals.”
#FlyTogether
Joel Quenneville said Ryan Strome was under the weather, reason why he was not an option for tonight’s game.

Leo Carlsson: youtu.be/Srn5U4AxDy8
Jacob Trouba: youtu.be/dtf589J6iK4
#FlyTogether
Trouba on Joel Quenneville:
“He just brings an energy, a level of fun.
When things are wrong, he addresses them and we move on. I think that's something I appreciate in him. Nothing really dwells. He has an issue, he’ll address it and then time to move forward.”
#FlyTogether
More Trouba:
“(Edmonton is) a dangerous team to give chances to. I think going down two twice and coming back is something to really pull from this game… I think that speaks a lot about the group and the character we're building in the room.”
#FlyTogether
Jacob Trouba on tonight’s performance:
“Came out a little sluggish today and then figured out a way to get a win, an exciting win. It kind of brings us that energy back. It’ll be fun to come to the rink tomorrow and kind of keep it rolling back on that path.”
#FlyTogether
Carlsson on what he’s learned this season from Joel Quenneville:
“His belief in me has helped me a lot. I think that’s the biggest thing with learning. I feel like I know a lot, but (learning) the character stuff and all that.”
#FlyTogether
Carlsson said he felt a little tired at points during his first game back after a couple of long shifts, but that he felt good.
“Stickhandling was okay, too. Speed was fine. Pretty good.”
#FlyTogether
Leo Carlsson on tonight’s performance:
“Fun game. Lot of back and forth, as we knew the game was kind of gonna be, too. Fun game overall.”
