“… We had 10 penalties two weeks ago. When you do that and drop the ball several times, you're not supposed to win.”
Tommy Johnson
“Too many penalties and when we went into the penalty box, they put it into the net. They were weak penalties. And mistakes where we made a mistake with the puck and either hooked somebody or got a stick up on someone. They are our mistakes and double mistakes. Give the puck away and hook somebody to cover up your mistake and we paid for it.”
Pat Quinn
“No other offense has ever been visited with such severe penalties as seeking to help the oppressed.”
Clarence Darrow
“You're not going to take many penalties when you have the puck.”
Ron Wilson
“He knows when to jump and when to back off. He's been a real asset on the penalty kill.”
Dave Baseggio
“We had some gutsy performances from our penalty killers, and usually when you kill, the goalie is your best killer. He was certainly outstanding, first to get us a point and then to get us the extra one.”
Ulf Samuelsson
“Anyone can miss a penalty and when he scored the last penalty for Cameroon, no-one said anything. We forgot it quickly and now we want to assassinate him. It's a pity he hasn't been picked as he is a super player and I just hope that it is not a political decision.”
