blue came great line mike nicely open puck tried trying
It was just a great play. Mike Lundin put the puck up nicely to Greg. He jumped over the blue line and I came over for support. He put it into space. I just was trying to get off quick. The glove was open so I just tried to put it there.
came deep flying hit kept neutral puck quick
We came out flying and we kept on them all game. They're a real quick team, so we had to get on them, not give them any space, and clog up the neutral zone. We got the puck deep and hit their defensemen.
again character counted great highs national opportunity people pill season shown throughout tough
It's really a tough pill to swallow. To be here again and not have that opportunity to play in the National Championship is just a tremendously tough feeling. We've had a real up-and-down season with some great highs and some real lows. A lot of people counted us out throughout the whole season. I think we have shown a lot of character this year.

Puck movement is a huge thing, especially on the power play.

We worked hard to get back in the game; we did everything we could to make it 3-2 and they found a way to chip in another goal.
dressing great knew questions room within
It's a great accomplishment. We started off great this year, had some trouble, and there were lot of questions around about us. But we knew within the dressing room that we had the team, had the talent, just had to put it together.
blessing damage fate feeling hopefully tough waiting
It's a real tough feeling to keep your fate in other teams' hands. But hopefully it is a blessing in disguise. We really want to get in that tournament. We know we can do some damage if we get in there. Right now we're just waiting and hoping.
bishop defense good help hockey protect style team turning
We just have do what we have been doing all year: play our style of hockey which is good team defense turning into offense. As long as our forwards come back and help out then we are going to be alright. We just have to protect Bishop and let him see the puck.
