bottom brothers came five great guided guys leadership leading program proud seniors taken team testament
It's been a testament to how great our seniors have been and how their leadership has really guided everybody. From when I came in here, they were only sophomores and they were always the guys that were even leading the team then. They've really taken this program from the bottom to the top. You can't really say enough about those five guys. I'm really proud of them and they'll be my brothers for life.
good shots
They're a good team, getting that many shots on us.
definitely direction room ship turn
There's definitely some room (to improve). We wanted to turn the ship around and get it in the right direction, but that's a long process.
goal happened score wrapped
They score their first goal when we're still wrapped up with what happened with Mac.
attitude everybody hope prove rest team
We want to prove that we're not the team that we just showed. I hope that's with everybody on our team. If we use that attitude the rest of the season, I think we'll have success.
confidence draw home remember road win
I remember my first road win was pretty big and I got a lot of confidence from that. I think you draw a lot of what you do at home from when you're on the road.
approach best compromise convince hopefully might quite strategy talk taught
But he taught that back in the day. We talk about things. If things aren't working out quite the way we want it to, then we talk. It might take some yelling, but you convince each other that this way is best or you compromise and hopefully come up with the best strategy as to how you're going to approach that save.
guess happy pulled speculate team
I guess you can speculate all you want. I'm just happy that the team pulled through.
downtown giving high morning people supporting walking watching
We were walking downtown this morning and people were giving us high fives on the street. A lot of people are watching us and supporting us.
apply feels learned lessons lose past point taught
We didn't apply those lessons that we should have learned in the past. It's just another point to look at to say this is how it feels to lose and if you don't apply the things you're taught and the things you learn before the game, you're not going to play how you want to.
blocking guys happening ice key shots
Our guys were blocking a lot of shots and that was happening all over the ice and that was the key to our success.
left
I think we have a lot left to give.
against michigan net players score state watched
I watched them against Michigan State and they get players to the net and were able to score off some tip-ins.
both glad national perspective playing putting ring trade trophy
Just putting everything in perspective, I think both of us are just glad we're playing in the national championship game. I think we'd trade that trophy for a ring any day.
