“We just played simple and got back to our game: Playing hard, fast, getting pucks in, and doing all the little things we need to do to play a full 60 [minutes].”
– Matthew Barbolini on the Marlies‘ keys to victory
“The puck moves faster than anything, but when guys are in the right spot and willing to understand when to make a play and when to put it in, it makes it hard on the opposition, especially if you set that tone early. I thought we did a good job of that in the first 20 minutes.
