“We withstood that first spurt and then we got our bearings together and we were in the game towards the end of the first half there. And then they just went on that run and that was just an effort run. They just gave greater effort than we did, and that was the difference in the game right there.”
Mike Burns
“This game happens in spurts. One team is going to make a run and the other comes back. I actually talked with them and got them adjusted to that. You know we'll come out wide open, and you know their team's going to make a run. But we've just got to settle down and maintain the lead.”
Mike Gainey

“We have another gear to put out. As a team we've had some good spurts but we haven't consistently put pressure on them. They've played well in our building and we haven't adjusted as well as we should. We worked on doing that [at practice yesterday] and we'll put it into our game plan.”
Daniel Alfredsson
“We've played in spurts, not always a full 40 minutes.”
Jim Calhoun
“He goes through spurts where he'll pitch like that, and then he'll just overthrow and he can't find the strike zone. Nobody knows why, but when he's on, he's awful tough.”
