Backtrom's post-game interview to P-Sport:

"I am happy that we won, because we started badly, I am happy that we managed to win and I do not care who scored goals. This is a team victory. I believe that we have to play the way we played before the break. This break has affected today's game, but I am sure that in the following games we will be much better"
