PANTHERS POSTGAME QUOTES

Defenseman MacKenzie Weegar

“The team that went out to Dallas [on Wednesday] competed hard. That was nice to see from all those young kids. That kind of carried over to us. We wanted to do exactly what they did.”

“We have a really good group of guys here that can make you fit in right away and make you feel good. We’re having fun in practice, our practices are high intensity. Just lots of high-quality plays in practice that carry over into games, you can see it and you can notice it.”

Defenseman Kevin Connauton


“It’s always a confidence builder when you’re playing well in the preseason, for everyone in the room. It’s the time to work on your systems and get in that game shape, that game mindset. We’re doing a good job right now.”

Head Coach Joel Quenneville

“I thought we had a really good start. A shot goes in, and all of a sudden things are going well for us. We had a lot of possession time, we were dangerous off the rush. I liked our speed, I liked our puck movement. Lot of positives there tonight, we liked the way we played.”

LOOKING AHEAD

Next up for the Cats — The Panthers will hold an 10:30 a.m. practice at the Panthers IceDen in Coral Springs on Saturday, Oct. 2, and then are OFF on Sunday, Oct. 3.
