Coach Mike Sullivan on Sidney Crosby: "Sometimes we marvel at what he does out there. We get the best seat in the house because we're right up close to it... I think the thing I admire most about Sid is his creativity and how he scores goals and his ability to do it so many different ways. I think he's the best player in the game, the best player in the world - and has been for a long time in and around the blue paint."

"They've won a lot of games recently. I think that was just our game plan coming in, make sure that we keep the chances and rushes to a minimum, and I think we did a really good job of that tonight." Tristan Jarry spoke after the Penguins 3-0 win against the Kraken.
