And there\u2019s going to be a lot to learn from this game and apply it to Game 2.\u201d \u2014 Brady Tkachuk on the loss<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wasn\u2019t sure, I mean, it happened so quick, and the ref called it a goal, but I feel like you never know nowadays, until they come out of that penalty box and rule it a goal or not. I probably should have just put it in and shouldn\u2019t have got to that point.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u2014 Drake Batherson on his disallowed goal in the third period<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t see it. I saw the first [shot] and felt like I got such a good piece of it that it was going to end up in front of me. And when it didn\u2019t, and all of a sudden you feel like people hit you from behind, you\u2019re thinking, \u2018oh, it\u2019s there\u2019, so you\u2019re looking, unfortunately, the other way, and that\u2019s when they capitalized and got a gritty one.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u2014 Linus Ullmark on Carolina\u2019s second goal<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLinus was amazing tonight, and I think obviously they\u2019re going to get their looks on the power play, especially when they have two 5-on-3s, but I think when they get their chances just collapse, protect Ully, stay strong on the entries, too, so you know, pretty good job tonight on that end.\u201d \u2014 Jake Sanderson on the team\u2019s perfect penalty kill<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They didn&#8217;t finish first for nothing. I didn\u2019t mind our game, a couple goals that went in were \u2014 I don\u2019t want to say lucky, but \u2014 first one, I think, is a fanned shot. The second one they get a bounce. We didn\u2019t find a way to generate enough but their team also does that too you as well&#8230; we didn\u2019t give up too many Grade As.\u201d \u2014 Travis Green on the loss<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s tough, yeah, he plays big minutes, obviously my partner, I rely on him a lot. Haven\u2019t seen him yet but hopes he\u2019s okay.\u201d \u2014 Jake Sanderson on Artem Zub\u2019s injury<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think the series is ever going to look like there\u2019s a ton of space out there. It\u2019s going to look very similar every night. They\u2019re going to forecheck hard. They\u2019re going to forecheck well. We\u2019re going to forecheck hard. It\u2019s going to be a lot of hits. I think at the end of every game, both teams are going to feel like there wasn\u2019t space on the ice, and I don\u2019t see that changing.\u201d \u2014 Travis Green on the tight-checking style of play<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What were they saying? \u201cWe didn\u2019t get those bounces, but that\u2019s the best thing about playoffs, is it\u2019s&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":556021,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5107],"tags":[194,29,5176,5,195,4],"class_list":{"0":"post-556020","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-carolina-hurricanes","8":"tag-carolina","9":"tag-carolina-hurricanes","10":"tag-carolinahurricanes","11":"tag-hockey","12":"tag-hurricanes","13":"tag-nhl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/116431584263749347","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/556020","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=556020"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/556020\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/556021"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=556020"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=556020"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=556020"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
