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.
few missed offensive power quite second several sound
We missed on a few offensive opportunities in the second as well as several power play opportunities. We could have come away with it, but we weren't quite as sound as they were.
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.
easier extra motivation next opponents time
We want opponents to know we are going to put up a fight. Unfortunately, we made it a little easier for Maine. We should have extra motivation the next time out.

We've got light at the end of the tunnel relative to the playoffs. It's a credit to the girls that they've made these two games into big games.
chances few good laurel played score
Laurel Koller and Genevieve Laing got a few chances to score but didn't get them in. Caitlin Reddy also played a good game.
against brown capitalize couple game goals hard harvard last period putting reward second third time work
I think the third period was our reward. We went through a time there, with the second game against BC, the game against Brown and last week's game against Harvard where we were putting in the hard work with no reward. The third was our reward and we were able to capitalize and put a couple goals in.
beat chance definitely question ultimately
I think there definitely is a chance to play spoiler. There's no question we have a chance to play with and ultimately beat this team.

The amount of penalties has been a problem. It is a recurring theme and it doesn't help the cause.
concerned goals number power
I wasn't concerned with the number of penalties, just the power play goals.
forward goal hope hopefully known steps
You always hope that your known goal scorers play well in the big games. Hopefully she steps forward and contributes as well as many of her teammates.
change complex earlier finding found games goals late score scoring struggled ways
We have struggled a little with scoring goals. In earlier games this season, we found ways to score goals late in the game and we just haven't been finding ways to do that lately. One goal can really change the complex of a game.
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.
came extra game
We didn't quit. It was a dead-even game - Northeastern just came up with one extra goal.
