Matt Niskanen got a bit testy with reporters Saturday night.

The Washington Capitals defenseman wasn't in the mood to divulge how his team reacted in the dressing room after losing 6-2 on home ice, surrendering a 2-0 series lead to the Pittsburgh Penguins in Game 2 of their second-round matchup.

"None of your business," Niskanen said when asked about the postgame mood in the room, according to Isabelle Khurshudyan of The Washington Post.

The Capitals took a little longer than usual to open up the dressing room after the blowout loss that ensured they'll be headed to Pittsburgh in a 2-0 hole.

Justin Williams said it was Nicklas Backstrom who spoke up in the room, but like Niskanen, Williams wasn't interested in revealing what was talked about, according to NHL.com's Katie Brown.

T.J. Oshie also declined to specify what was discussed, but said it was made clear from the Capitals' leaders how the club needs to move forward, according to ESPN's Craig Custance.

"No one in this room needs a lesson on how to go home early, we've done that," Oshie added, per The Washington Post's Missy Khamvongsa.

Washington's star goaltender, Braden Holtby, was pulled to start the third period after giving up three goals on 14 shots in the first 40 minutes. However, Niskanen isn't too concerned with how the reigning Vezina Trophy winner will handle it.

"He's an adult," the blue-liner said, according to Chris Gordon of Russian Machine Never Breaks.

Game 3 goes Monday night at Consol Energy Center.
