Peter Laviolette met with the media following the loss to Ottawa and said (MSG):
- “I think we need to do a better job defensively. There are too many things where they were coming at us with speed, I don’t think we layered properly or we don’t do the right things with regards to defending and taking care of the rush, they got behind us. Different reasons. All teachable things and things we can get better and show, but tonight it caught us a little bit.”
