Gerard Gallant Win Quotations

It was a huge goal for us. We were down two goals at that point, and then Bryan scores and we?re right back in it. I think it gave everybody on the bench a lift, like, we could win this game.

He kept us in the game. With his play and had we made plays when we had to, we win the game.

(The playoffs are) not going to be something we?re going to shoot for. But we?re going to come out and try and play hard every game and win as many games as possible and get things going in the right direction.

We showed character. I wish we?d won and pushed (the winning streak) to seven games. But we got the next best thing.

Once it took that long, I thought it might be a goal. I thought it might be kind of funny where one team celebrates and then they're going to turn it over and we're going to win the hockey game.

Coming in here and winning the sixth game is tough. We have had a bad record here this season.

It was real tough. Marc played the last three games for us and played as good as he's played in his career for us. Pascal, unfortunately, got a bad neck injury and Marc had to come in. It's tough coming in against the Red Wings on a power play.

He was cut and bleeding all over his face and I thought the rule was you can't come back on the ice if you're bleeding, you got to be patched up. And he goes out there and sets up basically the winning goal.

I was excited after the first period, we came out and played very well. Then we got cute with the puck in the second and it went from 3-1 to 3-3 in a hurry. You have to play 60 minutes to win in this league.

It?s about winning games right now. Marc Denis, the way he played (Wednesday), he makes it an easy decision right now.

I hope tonight was an off night. We've been playing well and a win over Detroit would have been huge.
