"We're losing right now and I'm not really helping offensively. I know what I need to do, know I can do it. I've been telling myself to shoot more and it's going to go in. Game 15 sounds like a good time for it."
- Florida forward Jonathan Huberdeau, owner of 6 points - all assists - via the Miami Herald
