The Flyers are heading back to Philadelphia to prepare for a game they very much did not expect to have to play after losing 3-2 to the Penguins in Game 5 on Monday. Here are some postgame thoughts from the visitors' room:
Dan Vladar: "Every game is different, even though you're playing against the same team. We know we are a good team. They have a veteran team, they know what it takes to win. We are still a young team. We've got to learn that."
Rasmus Ristolainen: "Just one game at a time, and the next one is at home. So, we're pretty confident. ... We gotta play a lot better and go up a couple gears for next game."
Alex Bump: "We just didn't find our game after that first goal. We fell off a little bit. We can't let that get to us. We've just got to get to our game quicker, I think."
Travis Sanheim: "Not as much (desperation) as them, obviously. We've got to regroup, get ready for the next one and find that desperation. Going home in our building, we're still in a good spot. We need a big effort."
Owen Tippett: "We knew it wasn't going to be easy. We knew we weren't going to win every game. Reset and get back at it."
Rick Tocchet: "It's a tight game. Give them credit. They defended really hard, blocked a lot of shots. We missed the net tonight. Failed clears, a little too soft with failed clears. ... The young guys were good. We've got some guys though that need to step it up. More pace. Shorter shifts. They were the better change team tonight. ... The fluky goal deflated us."
