POSTGAME QUOTES

HEAD COACH GREG MOORE

On Ian Scott:

Ian did a great job. If you take into consideration how long it's been for him to get into a live action game like that against an opponent like that. You could tell in the first period he had some nervous energy and movement, but he settled right in, made some big saves. Then in the second period, he looked very comfortable. It's incredible just how poised and calm he looks back there. Kind of mirrors his personality. For his first game, he should be really proud of that.

On today's game:

The process was in place, the competitiveness was there, the consistency was there. To fight back in the second period the way we did to get the game even after being down, the team showed a lot of character. There was definitely a lot more consistency today.

IAN SCOTT

On his first start since returning from injury:

There's not a lot of words. It's been a long time and I was just happy to be out there again.

On how the game developed for him:

There were definitely a few nerves but at the end of the day, I can trust that I've prepared enough for this and that I've put in the work. A lot of work went on behind the scenes and after a while coming back, I was able just to roll with things.
