bad decisions gave learn mistakes
We let up a little bit. We gave away two goals. We made some bad decisions and need to learn from our mistakes for success.
game goals last nowhere periods played point result slowly terrible three
We'll take a point any way we can get it. We battled back the last two periods after having just a terrible first period. We were nowhere to be found. Our game slowly got better the last 30 minutes. We really played to our abilities and got three goals as a result of it.
against everybody far general goals last month page penalty reason
Our penalty kill in the last month in general has been really good. That's an area, a reason why our goals against has been really down because of the improvements in our penalty killers and the goaltending hand-and-hand, everybody is getting more on the same page as far as responsibility.
finish good high team
It is good for our team to finish as high as possible.
anybody chances game good learn quality scoring time zone
I thought we had as many good quality scoring chances as they did. But we've got to realize, we can't get into a run-and-gun game with anybody at this time of year. We've got to learn from Game 1 that we've got to play a little tighter in our own zone and a little better defensively.
consistency game hard key room sharper work
I think we've got a lot of room for improvement. The key to our game is we have to work hard and keep doing the little things. We're getting more consistency in the way we play. We're working smarter, but we've got to get a little sharper at execution.
excellent flying
Rockford will be the prohibitive favorite, and they should be. They've had an excellent season. We're flying under the radar, and we'll play our game.
believing capable goals hockey juniors league needs ontario scoring
He scored 34 goals in juniors (with Kingston of the Ontario Hockey league in 1997-98). He's more than capable of scoring 30-plus or 40-plus goals in our league. He just needs to get it set in his mind, and I think he's believing more and more than he has that ability.
good nice shot
He had a nice shot on a 2-on-1 and a nice power-play goal. It was good for him and good for the team.
beginning chances good
He has been capitalizing on his chances more now than at the beginning of the year. It has been good for him and the club.
matter rust
He didn't play too badly. It's just a matter of getting a little rust off.
bit couple took
We took a couple unfortunate penalties, and that put us in a little bit of a bind.
time
At this time we don't think it's anything serious, but we're making sure.
