anybody bench bounce chance good kid knew puck
The bench was real upbeat. We knew we had a chance right down to the end. I didn't think anybody was getting too frustrated. Obviously, the kid was making some good saves, but one bounce of the puck and it's a 1-1 game.

It took something like that to turn things around. We talked and made sure everybody was committed to a team-first attitude.
games huge vermont weekend
The two games with Vermont this weekend are huge games.
bottle defense entire good job neutral team tough zone
They try to bottle you up in the neutral zone and they do a good job of it. It?s tough to penetrate and get into the zone on those guys. Their entire team defense I thought was great.
bottle expected good job neutral protect trying zone
That's what we expected the whole game. It's not like they were trying to protect a lead. They try to bottle you up in the neutral zone and they do a good job of it.
