Phillip Danault & Todd MacLellan 1/15/22 Post Game Quotes
Phillip Danault
On tonight’s game and getting the win in Seattle
I think it was a great game to be honest with you, they caught us off guard a little bit, they play very hard and they play the right way. They were a tough team to play today. I thought we battled well and scored some big goals. Big 60 minutes from us.
On finding a way in a tight-checking game to get the win
A good team finds a way. We stuck to our plan, they came out flying and they use their barn a lot too, the boards are very lively here, you miss the net and it’s one shot and done. We’ve definitely got to learn from this game, it was grinding today.
On finding goals regularly from right outside of the crease
Yeah, obviously if you want to score goals, you have to get there. I got a good bounce and some great play from my wingers. It’s huge for me and Arvy is chipping in as well. If you play well defensively as a team, it brings the offense.
On the play of the team’s goaltenders right now
Yeah, Cal and Quickie, they’ve both been very solid for us. They’ve given us a chance, Cal’s giving us a chance, and Quickie, every single game. Cal tonight was outstanding as usual, making some huge saves, key saves as well. When the game could have turned around, he made the big saves. It’s huge for us, you need big goalies to win, to make the playoffs, and that’s what we got.
Todd McLellan
On the win tonight
It was a battle, a fight for us both ways. They checked hard, they closed gaps, they took space away, won some races to pucks and we did the same thing. Both goaltenders made some big saves when they had to. Fortunate to get the penalty kill at the end. I think scoring first helped us, gave us a little confidence. It was a well-earned win, a win they made us earn.
On if he got the game he expected from Seattle
Absolutely, and maybe more. They came through the neutral zone pretty good, had a heavy forecheck. We were in position, sometimes we didn’t execute as well as we wanted. I think it was Kopi that said they’re not all pretty, but they count [the same]. Wins are hard to come by and we’ll take them any way we can get them.
On Philip Danault’s ability to score from in front and around the net
Yeah, I think that we probably don’t appreciate that part of his game enough. The guys around him are also doing a good job of getting the puck into that area, so that he can go and take advantage of it, I think that was the case again tonight. Solid at both ends of the rink, a very trusting player, the type of player we thought we were getting and a little more offense now as the year goes on. Good to see.
On Cal Petersen and the bigger saves he made tonight
He had some tough ones. There was a lot of traffic in and around the area, some rebounds, specifically on the penalty kill at the end. They had 14 even-strength shots, or whatever it was, which isn’t a lot, but there were some tough ones. He handled it well.
On Alex Iafallo’s key shot block and how he’s feeling
He’s fine, he’ll be a little bit sore. When your skill, top-six [players] are willing to do that, you’re usually winning games. You’re going to lose your share too, but you have a better chance of winning when guys sell out and sacrifice. During our little run, we’ve seen a lot of that. Good for us and hopefully it rubs off on everybody else.
