Jeff Petry said : "It’s obviously the biggest time of the year, so I wanted to do everything in my power to get back and to get back as quickly as I could”. Keeping injuries secret is also an NHL tradition, so the Golden Knights will say only that top center Chandler Stephenson is day to day with an “upper-body” injury as Vegas arrived for two games in Montreal. Earlier this postseason, the Boston Bruins let it be known goaltender Tuukka Rask was playing hurt for two rounds before revealing he needs hip surgery that will cost him part of next season. There's no denying what's going on with Weber and Petry. Weber missed the final eight games of the regular season with a left hand injury. He hasn't yet mimicked the sport's past by taping his stick to his gloves, but the Montreal captain hasn't missed a game in the playoffs and is tied for the team lead in ice time, averaging over 25 minutes a game at age 35. “He’s a guy that’s battled through injuries the last couple years, and to see the competitiveness and his wanting to be on the ice (is contagious),"

I thought today we entered better, we moved the puck better and I think we just have to have a shooting mindset. They’re a team that pressures hard. We have to work the puck around, make them shrink and get pucks to the net. I don’t think we’ve generated enough shots to be a threat and that’s when things get dangerous when you’re moving the puck around, shooting the puck and getting them tired. Things are going to open up when you’re doing that. I think we have to get in, keep it simple, move the puck around and generate some more shots”

Jeff Petry said : "It’s obviously the biggest time of the year, so I wanted to do everything in my power to get back and to get back as quickly as I could”. Keeping injuries secret is also an NHL tradition, so the Golden Knights will say only that top center Chandler Stephenson is day to day with an “upper-body” injury as Vegas arrived for two games in Montreal. Earlier this postseason, the Boston Bruins let it be known goaltender Tuukka Rask was playing hurt for two rounds before revealing he needs hip surgery that will cost him part of next season. There's no denying what's going on with Weber and Petry. Weber missed the final eight games of the regular season with a left hand injury. He hasn't yet mimicked the sport's past by taping his stick to his gloves, but the Montreal captain hasn't missed a game in the playoffs and is tied for the team lead in ice time, averaging over 25 minutes a game at age 35. “He’s a guy that’s battled through injuries the last couple years, and to see the competitiveness and his wanting to be on the ice (is contagious),"

Jeff Petry said ( about Artturi Lehkonen ) : “They’re in on the forecheck,” “Art, he’s a good PK guy. He’s a guy that we rely on on the PK. A guy that’s in on the forecheck and responsible defensively. A lot of similarities between him and Jake. I think he’s a reliable player. Jake’s a big part of our PK and Artturi is as well”

Jeff Petry said : “I think last game (Game 3 when they went 0-for-3) for sure was on us not executing, not being on the same page. I thought today we entered better, we moved the puck better and I think we just have to have a shooting mindset. They’re a team that pressures hard. We have to work the puck around, make them shrink and get pucks to the net. I don’t think we’ve generated enough shots to be a threat and that’s when things get dangerous when you’re moving the puck around, shooting the puck and getting them tired. Things are going to open up when you’re doing that. I think we have to get in, keep it simple, move the puck around and generate some more shots”

Jeff Petry said : “We have to find a way to battle through it,” “It’s inevitable at this time of year, whether it’s a normal schedule or the schedule we have this year, you’re going to feel that fatigue some nights, but mentally we have to be sharp. There might be guys who didn’t have the legs, but it’s just the mentality of doing the little things you can still do when you’re not at the top of your game”

Jeff Petry said : “I think it’s a matter of just bearing down,” “We’ve had opportunities, we’ve had chances. I think now it’s just a matter of believing in ourselves, knowing that we can score goals and when that opportunity comes not to grip the stick any tighter. Just know that you’re going to have that mindset that when you get the chance you’re going to capitalize on our opportunities. So I think we just have to be mentally prepared when we do get those situations. I think that’s something that can turn quickly. Just making sure that we’re bearing down on our chances”

The grit, the greasy, in-tight goals off a shin pad, rebounds, those are the goals that are being scored right now and we got to find a way to generate”

Jeff Petry said : “Playing with him and seeing what he did with the puck,” “His eyes would be looking somewhere and he’d make a play to somebody that he’s not looking at. Just little minor movements with his hand on his stick to just create a lane or to get pucks to the net. So that was one guy I watched since I got here. I was able to play with him for three, four years”

We can play a fast game, we can play a physical game depending on what the other team throws at us. But there’s one thing that we always rely on is our speed and I think with that it’s hard for teams to come out and set the pace early.

Just making sure that I’m not leading the rush … I want to support the rush and be up in the play. But especially with the group of forwards that we have up front we got a reliable group defensively and that ability to score throughout the whole lineup is important. So for me it’s focus on the D zone and support the attack rather than lead the rush”
