Brad Marchand on the Bruins' 3-0 loss: "You don't want to see it happen but it's not concerning. We just got to get back to the consistency we had, lasted a little bit. Get back to our game again... We had to be better, we had to win more battles."


Beck Malenstyn on the Capitals' 3-0 win against the Bruins: "I thought we did a phenomenal job from start to finish. We were able to really control play. I think we spent a lot of time in the offensive zone too, which really helped us. The best way to defend is to be down there. I really think we committed as a group. We broke pucks out a lot cleaner than we have been. It was really a complete team effort."
