Stars Head Coach Lindy Ruff

On tonight’s game:

“Tough one to lose. We played our hearts out.”

On twice losing a two-goal lead:

“Goligoski had a stick between his legs and was dumped and your goaltender gets cross-checked into the net.”

On Kari Lehtonen being hit in the crease on Detroit’s sixth goal:

“It’s inexcusable. There’s no explanation, it’s inexcusable and it ruined a hell of a hockey game. Bottom line.”
