It's going to be different. I've never experienced that. I think I'll be yelling at the screen. I think I'll be yelling at the refs. I think it's just going to be like watching an NHL game on a Tuesday night. I'll be watching and hopefully give some feedback to the guys if they give me a call Friday night.
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.

Our guys were blocking a lot of shots and that was happening all over the ice and that was the key to our success.

I don't think the true release has actually come. We won a game, but we don't even realize what we just did. This means so much to everybody; you just can't put it into words. Just saying it right now gets into your blood and your heart pumping. Seeing that trophy with those guys out there taking pictures, you couldn't write a better script for an ending.

The guys count on you to be that wall and I think fortitude goes into that. You just want to exude that confidence so the guys can get the job done in front of you and they don't have to worry about anything else.
bench chance confident eager guys helping playing sitting top tough watching
You want to do so much for the team, but you just can't. You're just sitting in the stands. You can't even be on the bench helping the guys out. It's just tough to watch, but I know the guys are eager to get another chance this weekend. I'm confident that when I'm watching on TV, they'll be playing at the top of their game.
shut
We shut them down as a team, I don't think it was any one person that did anything that special.
confident feeling felt good reacting start
The whole start of the year, I felt really good and really confident on my feet. It's a good feeling when you get back to that same feeling on the ice. You're not second-guessing your moves, you're just reacting to the shot. That's the way you've got to play and that's the way you have success.
