coming fast game locker loose nervous played
We could have played with more confidence. We were a little nervous coming into this game and there was a little uncertainty in our locker room. BC, meanwhile, played fast and loose hockey.
best came extremely heart played point reflected second several time
We had a lot of heart and toughness. That was probably reflected best in the second time we played several teams, we came back and played extremely well to the point of even winning.
concerned goals number power
I wasn't concerned with the number of penalties, just the power play goals.
across defense entire middle rink stretch work
We need to try not to stretch the defense across the entire rink. We have to work from the middle of the rink out.
extremely good offensive overall played plenty solid
Overall I think we played extremely hard. We had plenty of offensive opportunities. I think Northeastern, while they played a solid game, they had some good fortune.
avoid complete defensive forced games
We are not going to outscore them. We need to keep it a 2-1 game, but avoid a complete defensive mindset. There are games where we have been forced into this, though.
came extra game
We didn't quit. It was a dead-even game - Northeastern just came up with one extra goal.
advantage against hopefully scoring tips top trouble
We are having a little trouble scoring against the top teams. We've got to get screens, tips and deflections and make some pretty plays. Hopefully we will take advantage of our opportunities.
advantage defense few good
We didn't take advantage of a few of our good chances. Give their goalie and defense credit.
advantage against couple early fought lead nice
It would be nice if we could come out and get the lead early. We've fought back a couple of times against this team, but if we can get that advantage early we can play a better game.
bunch loose situation snapped
It was another situation where we got to a bunch of loose pucks. She got it and snapped it into the net.
credit intimidate offense period recreate second
The second period is a credit to Harvard. They can intimidate you with their speed, and we had to recreate a lot of offense for ourselves.
confidence far game good rhythm season wonderful
The shutout was good for her confidence. She has had a wonderful season so far and it got her back into game rhythm after a long break.
against excited games last pride redeem respect team
The team is excited for the last two games here. They're excited to try and redeem their pride and respect against Maine.
