Press Conference Review – February 28, 2023 Post Game Edition

**Players Segment:**

[Pengu] “I know Pitlick is a really good player and he can see those plays, so actually I was expecting the puck to come and it was a great play by him” – Ylonen on Pitlick’s assist on his goal

[Pengu] “He’s been unreal” – Ylonen on Allen

[Emrith] [Kaiden Guhle says he felt good out there in his first game back in 2 months – a little rusty at first but he said he was pain-free.](https://twitter.com/HabsInHighHeels/status/1630815080991412226?t=2cQ7k72wdx8r6Zpw8Du8bQ&s=19)

[Emrith] [Jake Allen poked fun at Kaiden Guhle when asked if it looked like the rookie D-man didn’t miss a beat after being out for two months: “I saw him sucking wind a few times”](https://twitter.com/HabsInHighHeels/status/1630816640957816832?t=seCca8sI96Unm1f5ObqEwQ&s=19)

[Emrith] [Jake Allen on Kaiden Guhle: “he’s naturally gifted, he’s a really good player, he’s going to be a horse for this team for a long time”](https://twitter.com/HabsInHighHeels/status/1630816984420982789?t=Gy4KuFBwvS-akLuvsolTjw&s=19)

[Emrith] [Jake Allen: “the trade deadline obviously it gets a little overblown with the media, social media – it is what it is. There are a lot of guys on this team that aren’t going to be traded; I don’t think a lot of guys have a whole lot to worry about…”](https://twitter.com/HabsInHighHeels/status/1630819527511425027?t=PZstdeFJ1V8_lqnOhGUOwQ&s=19)

[Emrith] [Jake Allen on the looming trade deadline not being a distraction to the players: “on Friday or sometime this week if your name gets called & you’re moved on, that’s the nature of the business unfortunately but guys are just in the right mindset, right mood…”](https://twitter.com/HabsInHighHeels/status/1630820119172595712?t=cqZUhoJHWH5p3Qvh76MHeA&s=19)

[Pengu] “You have to give a guy like [Savard] a lot of credit this year. He holds this group together. He really does. And he eats crazy hard minutes, but he doesn’t get accolades, doesn’t get rewards. But he keeps this group together. Keeps them light. Keeps them loose. And without him this year, I think it could be a different story. I think he is a huge piece to this puzzle.” – Allen

**St-Louis Segment:**

[Emrith] [Martin St-Louis: “we talked between the 2nd & 3rd that we need the 3rd period to be our best period tonight & it was that. Guys stuck with it, we didn’t have to cheat for it, we stayed patient & just trusted the style and brand that we play to put us through”](https://twitter.com/HabsInHighHeels/status/1630820974441422848?t=RtN4wa4KG5Wd7L8vs3J7CA&s=19)

[Emrith] [Martin St-Louis’ first impressions of Denis Gurianov’s game: “as advertised….a lot of speed, great shot, not afraid to take the puck to the net but I was also noticing a lot of good habits away from the puck…it’s exciting for a coach…”](https://twitter.com/HabsInHighHeels/status/1630821946043580416?t=A-ybnMNFWKmd5zYKrfGQuw&s=19)

[Emrith] [Martin St-Louis on the newly constructed 1st line of Hoffman-Suzuki-Gurianov: “I thought that line played well; I thought Suzy had his fastball tonight”](https://twitter.com/HabsInHighHeels/status/1630822527332122627?t=k8-VNDX5nB3VE4SmZeqhuA&s=19)
