against bit build came game looked season team tired type works
This was a long season for the type of game we had to play. I thought we looked a bit tired for stretches of that game. We came up against a team that works as well. Unfortunately we weren't able to build a lead.
believe fifty game hard heads net night played power result saturday shot win
This was a frustrating result tonight. It is hard to believe we had fifty shot on net with only one power play. We played well, but just didn't score. We have to keep our heads up and find a way to win because we have another big game on Saturday night with a lot at stake.
aspects continue game improve keys number
We have to continue to improve all aspects of our game. One of the keys is to get in game shape. We had a long layoff. Conditioning is very important. It's our number one priority.

To stay in the East is a big bonus. Now we have a lot of friends and family that will come to the game and support us. That is one of the big reasons why we do so well.
ben bishop difference early exciting games goals opportunity past periods promises reason score second strong tomorrow tonight won
We have had some strong first periods in past games but the difference tonight was we were able to score goals. Getting the early goals was important tonight. Ben Bishop had a strong second period in which things could have turned. That was a big reason why we won the game. Tomorrow night will give us another opportunity and promises to be an exciting but challenging game.

I think back to two years ago, we had the most fans of any team there. Especially in the Harvard game where we had to come back. It just provides such a lift.
against anyone backs bother four games imagine last players pressure rise situation strong team wall year
Last year our backs were to the wall and we had to go against a very strong Lowell team for four games and we did it. We have been in this situation before and been able to rise up to the challenge. As for the pressure, it doesn't bother me because I put more pressure on myself than anyone could put on me. I imagine most of our players are the same.

advantage against game neutral respect thinking understand
We respect the advantage it will be for them. We're not going in thinking it's just another game at a neutral site. We know we're up against it here. And we have a respect for the challenge. But we understand it can be done. We've done it.

We had lots of chances and eventually the dam broke and we ended up with a real good comeback win. We talked about not getting frustrated if didn't come easy. We didn't get off track. We stuck to the game plan.
games ice leave lost needed obviously regardless room share
We've lost our share of games already so we didn't have a lot of room to play with. Obviously we needed to leave it all out on the ice regardless of the results. And I think for the most part we did that and that is why I am happy.
ending fought game hard ourselves played proved time valuable
Most importantly we didn't quit. We played hard and fought back. Unfortunately it didn't have the storybook ending that we had hoped, but at the same time we proved something to ourselves that we can come back and that the game is never over. Those are valuable lessons.
