We could have won it, but we didn't capitalize and it came back to bite us.
character four game good jump late lines maybe picked using work
We showed good character to keep working, even when we got behind. We picked up our work ethic, and maybe using four lines was a factor. Late in the game we had more jump and that really helped.

It's just the beginning as well as a great signing by this organization. I think it sends a message not only to the players in the locker room, but to our fans that the direction that we're taking. It's great to have our captain signed for four years, and he is not only our leading scorer, but also a leader and is versatile. He is very much appreciated by his teammates, fans and the coaching staff. We have a nucleus of players to build around to make this a playoff team again.
