finish goal home ice
Getting home ice was a preseason goal and we've accomplished it, and now our goal is to finish second.
bench camera everybody goal knew obviously percent replay
Obviously the goal was in, but the replay camera is probably the only one that you couldn't really 100 percent conclusively tell it was in. Everybody on the bench knew it was in right away.
beat goals love obviously people score seven six
Obviously we'd love to score six or seven goals but we don't do that. You're not going to beat people easy.
bigger game goal goals margin score second secret
It's no secret what we have to do (to have a successful) second half. Our goal differential is about 0.2. We score 3.1 goals a game and give up 2.9. You have to have a bigger margin of goals scored and goals against.
goal good major
It was a good game, we had the lead. Then we got that major penalty, they got a power-play goal then they got going.
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.
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.
games goal group ncaa state straight three
I know (Michigan) State hasn't scored a goal in three straight NCAA games. But this group ? they do what they need to do.
goal last type year
The goal that Fretter scored was the type of goal he got last year that he hasn't been able to get this year.
coached consistency game himself importance player prepares
I've never coached a player in 34 years who prepares like he prepares. To the detail, to the consistency, to how much he stresses the importance of getting himself into his game mode.
home maybe prettier ready win
Sometimes you like to win maybe better or prettier but, whatever, we'll take the win and go home and get ready for Saturday.
contribute good multiple players seniors teams time
Teams have to have good seniors and they have to have multiple players contribute at this time of the year. We had that.
control destiny playing teams
You always like to control your own destiny and we do that by playing teams that we need to beat.
chances good perfect puck start time year
(We had) good chances and the puck started to go in for us. Perfect time of the year for that to start happening.
