credit excellent gets people skate transition underrated
They skate very well. They're a very underrated team. Ferris really gets up and down ? they have an excellent transition game. They're just a lot better than people want to give them credit for.
expectation faces happy nature schools smiles ten
I think the nature of Big Ten schools (is) they're not happy just to have programs. You put smiles on people's faces by winning. And the expectation is you do it the right way.
five four game goals hang took
I thought we could have had four or five (goals) in the first but you don't. You let them hang around and then they took the game away in the second.
beat michigan played playing quality team
I thought we played really well. You don't beat a quality team like Michigan without playing very, very well.
certainly game goals gone maybe puck three
I thought that was a game we could have gone up by certainly at least two, maybe three (goals). But we couldn't get the puck in the net.
attack dangerous
I think we were more dangerous on the attack and we had the better speed. It's very encouraging.
block effort great hip hit
Jared made a great effort to block that first shot, it just hit his hip and went in.
confidence critical goes good jeff played saves
Jeff had to come up with some pretty good saves at some pretty critical times. We played very well. Very solid. We got the first goal, and that's so big in these games. Confidence goes way up.
front jeff left might net save
Jeff had to come up with a big save early, when we left the front of the net open. If they get up 1-0, it might be a different result.
pressure takes
I think it takes a lot of pressure off of this team.
best tough weekend
I think they have the best set of forwards in the league. It'll be a tough weekend for us.
seems top trouble
He seems to be right on top of things and very alert. We've always had trouble with him.
focusing kids looked maybe point points start time tired win
We maybe looked a little tired tonight, but I thought our kids never panicked, and got a hard-earned win in overtime. It is so important, particularly at this point of the season, to get points on the road. We got one win, and now its time to start focusing on getting another one tomorrow.
earlier hope resilient win year
Right now, you hope to find a way to win and we did. We were resilient enough to win tonight. Probably, earlier in the year we wouldn't have done that.
