"We've risen to the occasion when we've played the elite teams recently," said the Stars' coach. "I like where we're at, but you always wonder how it's going to translate when you get one of those teams in a seven-game series."

"Any of those deep postseason runs, the one constant has been veteran leadership in the room," DeBoer said. "This group has that in spades. It has that as much as any team that I have coached."
