Craig Berube on managing Joe Woll's workload: "It's in the back of my mind... We've also talked about toning it down a bit in practice... He can go overboard"

"That we're defending as a five-man unit a lot better than we have been. We have numbers around the puck, and we are breaking pucks out easier. We are not stretched out. We are connected in the zones. That's what I see. In the neutral zone, we have done a pretty good job with our defending. Offensively, we have done a pretty good job of creating chances. I liked our power play; it created some opportunities that didn't go in."
