"We don't really care about Buffalo's home-ice advantage when it comes to last change and chasing matchups. We know how we have to play. We're going to be ready to go. We're excited."
"We are bigger, stronger. We are more physical. We just have to be smart. We're going to go after them and whoever comes in - first line, second - I don't really care."
"That's his take on his team. I have a lot of respect for what our team has done and how we play and the speed we play in the game."
"We've all seen it. It is everywhere right now. At the end of the day, our group trusts what we're doing here."
Marco Sturm expressed confidence in the Bruins' ability to set a physical tone in their playoff series against the Sabres. He downplayed Buffalo's home-ice advantage, stating the Bruins know how to play their game. The Bruins have established a reputation for physical play, ranking second in fights and sixth in total hits in the NHL. Sabres coach Lindy Ruff acknowledged Sturm's comments but maintained respect for his own team's speed and style. Sabres forward Josh Doan noted awareness of the narrative surrounding Boston's physicality but emphasized trust in their own approach.
