What some of the Stars had to say after their 2-1 overtime win over the Sharks, to take a 3-0 series lead:
Mattias Norstrom: It's one of those situations that we had the pick for a while and I was just trying to get the puck to the net as soon as I could. Marty made a great save for us in overtime and kept us in it. I thought tonight was our best game of the series and tomorrow, we want to close this series out.
Mike Modano: It's about sticking to our gameplan and capitalizing on chances. We got a big 5-on-3 goal and it was just a tight game. Game 3 is pivotal and gives us a lot of momentum and excitement. We want to get right back at them and we'll see what happens tomorrow. There's a lot of adrenaline right now and elimination games in Dallas are always revved up. Their backs are against the wal and we'll need to match their intensity.
Brenden Morrow: We'll take it. We played some real good hockey and we're in a real good position right now. We are finding ways to win hockey games and have gained some steam here. It's a battle, they are good defensively and they do a good job clogging up lanes. We have emphasized the starts and we'd like to bring some momentum from the opening faceoff tomorrow night. Hopefully, our will prevails tomorrow night.
Marty Turco: We could care less how [Norstrom's goal] went it. That's playoff hockey and when games are that tight, you feel very fortunate to score in overtime. It's all about moving ahead and getting that fourth win. It was great to see it go in, though. We are going to need to try and limit them tomorrow like we did tonight. You have to continue to make your own breaks and that's our mindset right now.
