You could tell how tired they were. They couldn't get anything going. We knew as long as we kept the puck ahead of us and didn't take any penalties then they would have a tough time scoring.
biggest ready
We were ready to play from the beginning, that's the biggest thing we take from this win.

The second half of the game I thought we played really well. We were able to get the puck in deep and we were able to keep them in their end for long periods of time, forget that fact we haven't done a whole lot lately, and we just wore them down, I think.

I used black tape the whole game, but switched to an old stick that had white near the end.
