    POSTGAME QUOTES:
    HEAD COACH SHELDON KEEFE
    On tonight’s game:
    “I thought we played an excellent game. Let’s not let the craziness of the third period take away from the fact that we played an excellent game, even within the third period, but then all that nonsense. The way Mikheyev responded on his goal, that line scored us a huge goal there. The way the penalty kill
    responded in a key moment. So the craziness of the period, that is going to be the focus but our guys played a really good game today. You go into the third period and you really just want to get out of there, then all of a sudden they throw a floater at the net and it goes in and they get life and they get a couple
    more just like that and it changes things. Things changed there quickly but let’s not lose sight of the fact that our guys played a really good game today.”
    MITCH MARNER
    On what he’ll remember about tonight’s win    :
    “A lot of great plays by my line mates. A lot of great plays by our team. Wild game completely. Obviously, not how we wanted to be in that third but just good on the guys for sticking with it believing in that process and getting it done.”
    AUSTON MATTHEWS
    On what changed during the third period:
    “They just got a couple quick goals, just the momentum. You could feel the energy in the crowd turn on a little bit and when you score like that, shift after shift, obviously they got the fans into it they get belief now on their side and all of a sudden it’s a hockey game.”
    MICHAEL BUNTING
    On tonight’s win:
    “I thought we played great the first two periods. Especially our start, I thought our start was one of the best of the year. We were creating chances and we were able to get a lead but hockey is a funny game like that, you kind of step off the pedal a little bit there and they get momentum and the crowd gets into it
    and they start rolling and all of a sudden it’s a one-goal game so I thought we responded great and I thought we didn’t panic and we got the win so that’s all that matters. We’re walking away with two points and we just have to move on from this. A win is a win and looking forward to Monday.”
    JUSTIN HOLL
    On what changed during the third period:
    “Obviously the third period was crazy. You go out there with the intention to not give them anything. They
    get a couple early goals and get some life and all of a sudden you’re in a hockey game so I thought it was
    a great response by some guys to get some goals back and put the game away in the end.”

POSTGAME QUOTES

HEAD COACH GREG MOORE

On today’s game:

It was a good 60-minute effort. Good energy, good start. We built momentum, got stronger as the game went on in terms of managing the puck and not giving them turnovers in transition towards our net.

On Källgren’s shutout:
He was great today. That’s back-to-back games in this barn where he’s done a really good job shutting the door. I don’t know if the shutout has been on the mind for anyone. I’m sure for him as any goalie is looking to get their first and even to this point, he probably deserves a shutout prior to this one. There were a couple of games here and there where we had some leads and we didn’t shut the door the way we should in the third period. He’s been really patient, he’s been working really hard. The consistency and the calmness in which he plays gives our team a lot of confidence.

JOEY ANDERSON (1 GOAL, 2 ASSISTS)

On today’s game:
Today was an awesome effort by everyone. Right out of the gate, we were physical. (Källgren) played great in the back end. We were simple with the puck. Like I said, I think this is the most physical game we’ve played and it’s just awesome that guys stepped up today. There wasn’t a guy out there that wasn’t carrying his weight. It was a complete 60-minutes from us today. It was really awesome for us to be able to help (Källgren) get that shutout today. It’s something we can build off of as a group.

ERIK KÄLLGREN (FIRST CAREER AHL SHUTOUT)

On his first shutout and whether he had thought about it this season:

You think about it. I think about it. You want to get the one. I’m not going to lie to you. We’ve been close a couple times before but of course we get the win and that’s the most important thing but to get that shutout is nice.

On the team’s performance in front of him:
We were very solid defensively. A couple of guys made some really big plays defensively. That obviously helps a lot. I think they had 11 shots for the last two periods. That definitely helps me. This is a team win and you can’t get a shutout without the team.

LAST TIME VS. BROOKLYN
GAME 28 – DECEMBER 14, 2021
BROOKLYN 131, TORONTO 129 (OT)
NEW YORK — Patty Mills made a 3 to force overtime, Kevin Durant had
34 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists, and the Brooklyn Nets beat the
Toronto Raptors 131-129 … Durant was upgraded from questionable just
before the game because Brooklyn has seven players in the NBA’s health
and safety protocol … He responded with his 14th triple-double of his
career … Brooklyn won its third straight, with Mills adding 30 points … The
Nets also got 17 from Kessler Edwards, 16 from Nic Claxton and 13 from
Blake Griffin … The loss snapped a two-game winning streak for Toronto
(13-15) … Fred VanVleet led the Raptors with 31 … Gary Trent Jr. and
Pascal Siakam each finished with 25 … Scottie Barnes had 23, but missed
what would have been a game-winning, buzzer-beating 3 in overtime …
Trailing by 10 entering the third quarter, Toronto outscored Brooklyn 44-
25 to take a 100-91 advantage going into the fourth … But Brooklyn outscored Toronto 26-11 over the first 7:18 of the fourth quarter, regaining
the lead … It didn’t last. Barnes knocked down two 3s to tie the game, and
Trent made a 3 with 1:21 left to give the Raptors a 120-117 lead … That
held until Mills’ 3 with 13 seconds left forced overtime.

S
• The Hawks will face off against the Toronto Raptors for the third time this season on Saturday, 2/26, at State Farm Arena. In the team’s most
recent outing against the Raptors on 2/4, Atlanta swiped a season-high tying 12 steals. Delon Wright and Bogdan Bogdanovic each recorded four
steals as reserves, a season-high tying mark for Wright and a career-high tying mark for Bogdanovic. Wright and Bogdanovic became only the
fifth Hawks duo since steals became an official stat (1973-74) to have 4+ steals in the same game coming off the bench, per Elias Sports.
• Atlanta enters Saturday’s game having won nine of its last 11 games played at State Farm Arena. Over those 11 outings, the Hawks are averaging
120.5 PPG and 27.8 APG (.512 FG%, .402 3FG%, .811 FT%). At home this season, Atlanta’s shooting .481% from the field, third-best in the
NBA and second-best in the Eastern Conference, while scoring 114.6 PPG, the third-most in the NBA and second-most in the East.
• The Hawks have connected on 10-or-more three-pointers in 15 consecutive home games (since 12/22/21 vs. Orlando), tying the longest such
streak in franchise history and marking the second-longest active such streak in the NBA. Atlanta has knocked down 15+ three-pointers six times
during that span, averaging 14.1 3FGM in those 15 games.
• In the month of February, Bogdan Bogdanovic is averaging 17.3 PPG, 4.2 RPG, 3.8 APG and 1.8 SPG in 30.1 MPG as a reserve (.479 FG%,
.448 3FG%, .769 FT%). He’s scored 20-or-more points in four of his last five games, which includes a season-high 27 points on 2/24 at Chicago,
and has seven games of three-or-more three-pointers in February – the most by any bench player this month. Bogdanovic ranks second amongst
all bench players in the month of February in total steals (16), total points (156) and total made three-point field goals (30), while ranking tied
third in total assists (34).
• Against the Chicago Bulls on 2/24, Danilo Gallinari netted 26 points (10-18 FG, 2-4 3FG, 4-6 FT), in addition to nine rebounds in 35 minutes. It
was only the ninth time in his career Gallinari’s notched at least 26 points and nine rebounds and the first time doing so since 3/31/19 against
Memphis. Gallinari has scored 25-or-more points in two of his last three games, averaging 20.7 PPG and 5.3 RPG over that time (.500 FG%,
.467 3FG%, .813 FT%).
• Trae Young registered his 29th points/assist double-double of the season against the Bulls on 2/24, finishing with 14 points, a game-high 10
assists and three rebounds in 37 minutes. Young’s 29 points/assist double-doubles are tied for the most such double-doubles in a single season in
his career (29, 2018-19 season). It’s also tied for the fourth-most points/assist double-doubles by any Hawk in a single season in franchise
history.
• Clint Capela notched his 13th game of the season grabbing 15+ rebounds on 2/24 against Chicago, tallying 17 rebounds, in addition to 14 points.
His 13 games of 15-or-more rebounds this season are the fourth-most in the NBA. Since the 2014-15 season, Capela has 92 games of 15+
rebounds, the fifth-most such games in the last seven season. Capela currently ranks third in the NBA in RPG, averaging 12.2 RPG per game
