Roope Hintz on the Stars' comeback and the key to that: "It was good that everybody showed up today and we showed that we're coming back strong - It starts with good preparation and mentality when you're ready to play. So, I think we are ready to go."
"I think they just out-competed us today - It's not easy to win every battle, but it's got to be just better than tonight." Nico Hischier met with the media after the Devils' 6-2 loss against Dallas on Saturday.
Nico Hischier on injured players: "We're not using that as an excuse - It's about whoever is in the lineup here. We've proven that we can be a good team, and tonight we're just not the better team."
