bat game pace
I think so. I think you can get into the game a lot more right off the bat when you get into it (physical play) more. You get up with the pace of the game faster.
exciting game
It was a back-and-forth game and an exciting game.
crowd enjoy game hear moment
It's exciting. You don't really know how to feel. But to hear the crowd and see the hats, you just try to enjoy the moment a little bit. When it's at the end of the game and you know you won, you can enjoy it a little more.
allow game goals win
Two short-handed goals is unacceptable. You're not going to win any game if you allow that.
best game great kept knew last team
He's a great leader. The whole team kind of knew we weren't going to give up. We kept going right to the end, and we had our best game in the last little bit.
fun good hanging ice living nice season share
We've become really good friends and living together, going through everything together, hanging out off the ice every day, it's nice to have him around. It's fun to have someone to share this with. My first season has been unbelievable as well, on and off the ice. It has been a whirlwind.
Right when they got the first goal, I think it kind of slowed us down and we couldn't really recoup after that.
skate ticket
We need a place around here we can skate without getting a ticket for it.
build energy gives huge key penalty point seemed swing team turning whenever
That was the turning point in the game. They had a huge energy swing off of that. Whenever you kill a key penalty like that at such a key time, it really gives a team momentum. They killed that off and seemed to build on it.
kept looked saw shoulder slowly stick tried waiting
I saw it coming, I just tried to get my stick on it. I looked over my shoulder and I saw it just slowly going in. I just kept waiting and waiting.
everybody guys key stepped
We had a lot of key guys out of the lineup and everybody stepped up.
discuss good happened hockey turn wait
Wait and see, it'll turn into a really good tan. It was more like story time. More laughs. When we were here, this happened and so forth. We really didn't discuss the hockey play a whole lot.
biggest guys ice leadership perform somewhat
I think it somewhat comes natural, ... You always want to know what's going on with your team. The biggest thing about leadership is being able to perform on the ice the way you want the guys to perform. Lead by example.
active added board climbs cooler costs demand filling further gas growth higher hurricane natural offshore passed paying portion reducing season situation slow steadily storage stores summer tap winter
The board filling up summer storage is now paying higher summer natural gas costs for gas stores that we will tap into for a portion of our winter heating season needs. These added costs have to be passed on to consumers. Compounding this situation is slow growth of natural gas production, and an active hurricane season impacting offshore natural gas production, further reducing supply, while demand steadily climbs in the cooler months.
