“I am very, very happy to have earned this first point. The start in a Davis Cup tie is always important and so I am glad we are ahead.”
Mario Ancic
“It was a tough start, it was so intense. It was really important to tie the game in the first period. After that, we played smart.”
Henrik Lundqvist
“I'm not happy with a tie, but this was our first game in 14 days. We were sluggish at first and sluggish at times during the game.”
Jeff Wood
“That first game in Boston was a pivotal point. We got down early, came back and tied it and ended up losing. I think that really knocked a lot out of us.”
Walt Jocketty
“In the first half, even though we were pretty happy about the score being tied, we missed some opportunities. Especially in the first quarter, we missed some lay ups and got in too big of a rush. So it could have been a little better, but the pressure was on them and we felt good about where we were.”
Dan Moore
“I'm not happy with the tie. Especially the first half, we had the game controlled, and we should have put two more away and we didn't. But that's how it goes.”
Amy Litteral
“Look at bright side. We only got one point, but we're tied for first place with Calgary. It's all in everybody's hands right now in this race because we're all playing each other.”
