Taylor's the one player the last couple of weeks who has answered the bell every night. If you want to see what passion is, look at Taylor
If you look at the last few weeks, the one play that has answered the bell every night is Taylor ... If you want to know what passion looks like in a hockey play, watch Taylor Hall. I'm not sure you can teach it. It might be part of your DNA. But I am glad he's got it.

It’s an emotional game and it takes passion to play and we had that back tonight ... Real credit to the fourth line for going out there and getting us started.
We were just brutal ... They don't feel real good about themselves at the moment and they shouldn't. The thing I don't like is that I don't see ice bags and guys sore from really gutting it out and doing everything they possibly can to win a hockey game.
They scored a goal in the second period on us and we went, 'Uh-oh' and backed off instead of going after them ... This is our rink. We have to win here, and in the second period, especially, we were just too easy to play against.

Keep it going, kid ... It's remarkable. The beauty is that Edmonton Oiler fans get to watch this. This is a classic example of what can come when you decide to rebuild.
We'll miss (Hall), but someone else will pick up the slack and take advantage of the opportunity
I thought it was a decent start. The story for me tonight is shoot the puck
Sometimes it’s a challenge to stay focused yourself ... But players also they need to know you’re with him. I wasn’t happy with the call, I thought it was B.S., and I think the officiating felt the same way with the subsequent calls.
They taught us a lot ... Barry (Trotz), year in and year out has this team competitive and playoff bound. What they've helped us learn is that you have to stay with it. On bad nights your system will protect you. We're trying to develop a reputation here, an image, a look, a style of play that's Oiler. ...
Are we a good match-up for them
I thought our compete level needed to improve and it didn’t ... They came after us, hemmed us in our end and we had a hard time getting out.
It’s a long season and everyone is going to have dips ... The big thing is to stop them. Keep playing the game the way you have to to have success.
Once he has an MRI and he confers with the doctors and they with us we’ll give you more details ... But I have nothing right now.
He was mad at himself for how he took the play on ... He knows this player, he’s played against him before and knows how he plays. He’s most upset with himself and how he approached that particular play. But don’t change that. I’d rather encourage a guy to tone it down than try and extract something out...
We'll see how bad it is and step back from the ledge, first of all ... Just relax and see what the MRI and the medical stuff tells us.
We took some penalties. That didn't help obviously ... We were down to pretty much three lines and some extra skaters, so we were a little bit of short bench. I think maybe fatigue caught up to us and probably cost us the game at the end of the night.
I think maybe fatigue caught up to us — probably cost us the game at the end of the night ... We were on fumes in the third period.
He’s got his legs under him
You know what they say ... Romania wasn’t built in a day
The first one was a take-out, it was a fair, clean hit ... The second one I did not see because it was down to my left by the net.
If I held my breath every time Taylor Hall went flying into the net, I’d have brain problems ... He’s relentless and he’s a reckless type of player and those are hard people to defend. As long as he keeps missing those posts, then I’m OK with that.
