They had a little extra motivation to beat us after losing to us the last time out. It helped carry them. All in all, a top team played a solid game and got the better of us.

They are a well-established team. We are not at their level, but I thought we played an organized and structured game with good energy.
ability against boston considered due game miss par people schedule team teams tough
They are a team that is on par ability-wise with Boston College. People miss them due to their tough schedule so far. This will be considered a big game against one of the upper echelon teams in our league.

There wasn't much to it. They picked off a pass and then took a good low shot that was tipped in.
both create fair given perfect schedule tried
It's fair for both teams. You take what's given to you in the schedule, if you tried to create a perfect schedule - well you probably could never do that.
experience hard juniors team void
This is a young team and we need a little more experience before we can think about outscoring New Hampshire. With a void of juniors and seniors, it is hard to get experience out there.
constant hockey kids pride revenge summer together win
It's not so much revenge as it is a constant pride to do as well as you can. A lot of these kids will play together this summer in different hockey venues, so it's a reclaiming of self-pride to get out there and win games.

There were a couple of situations in the second period when we didn't handle Northeastern well defensively, and they capitalized on it. There were some mistakes we could have corrected.

They're obviously not anyone we take lightly. They are definitely going to have some motivation. They obviously don't want to lose the season series to us, a first-year team.
both came flat good offensive played teams
For a low-scoring game, both teams had a lot of offensive opportunities. We came out flat which was kind of disappointing, but then we played two very good periods.

It's another test for us to be prepared and put our best foot forward. We want people to have a sense that BU comes to play every night.

It was the most disturbing game of the season to me. Maine took advantage of us in that game.

It was a very positive game. We were much more organized in this game and left Northeastern knowing that they were given a challenge.

It was a wonderful effort by her. We feed off of the goaltender because she keeps us in the game. We give her a lot of credit for putting us in a position to win.
