capable definitely good problem three
It's definitely a good problem to have. I know all three want to play and all three are capable of playing.
came cap close double feather goal group last overtime year
It's a feather in the cap for this group of players. They battled from Day One and they had to go to double overtime for us to make that last step. We were very close last year and we came up a goal short.
against best capable confident decide fits good playing supportive three
They've been pretty good about it, and have been very supportive of one another. I know all three want to play and all three are capable of playing ... we'll try to decide who best fits us against St. Lawrence. We're confident in all three.
benefit cap center games good hockey home ice maybe ncaa nest playoff time whether
At this time of the year, any time you can play at home, whether it's your playoff games or an NCAA game, I think it's a benefit to your hockey club. If you get that home game, whether it's some years maybe at the Kohl Center or maybe at the Cap Ice Center or at the Eagle's Nest (in Verona), it's a good thing.
came capitalize close ends game games hard last meaning month next night played playoff puck score teams third tight trying weekend whatever
In the first game, the puck went in real quick. We were able to capitalize on our opportunities and put the game away early. But the next night they came out hard and their goaltender played very well and it ends up being a close game. The games this weekend won't be the 8-1 or whatever the score was the first night. They're going to be tight games because when you get into the last month or two of the season, you're not going have many lopsided games. Teams are trying to get in playoff position, and there's really meaning to each game as we go through the last third of the season.
capable confident guys lose match meet winning
I don't like to lose at all, and I know we're capable of winning every match this weekend. I told the guys before the meet that I was confident we'd win every match. That didn't end up happening, but I'm still happy.
decided gets pavement sealed
When it got colder, we decided to wait, because they can't be sealed if the pavement is too cold. We'll have them sealed when it gets warmer.
avoid local until whenever
We are urging local residents to avoid U.S. 69 whenever possible, ... It's a bottleneck right now and will be until probably the weekend.
building continue four growth last past seen support three year
I've seen growth every year on our side. We've done things this year that we didn't do last year. It's building ... we'll just keep doing the things we're doing. If we do that, the support will continue to improve, as it has in the past three or four years.
allowed humanity people
These were people much like you and I. What is it in humanity that allowed it to happen?
challenged game linger period second team wrap
The second period was real big for us, because it kind of put the game out of reach. I challenged the team to come out and play like we wanted to win. It was kind of an 'eye of the tiger'-type thing where we ... let the other team know that we wanted to wrap it up and not let this thing linger on.
face girl
The wonderment in her face is the wonderment of the little girl herself.

The workmanship that had to go into that piece of cheese was outstanding.
