All year long I've stressed to my kids that our speed was our biggest strength. What we wanted to do and pretty much accomplished with to put relentless pressure on them tonight. We wanted to pinch in against their defense because it's their strongest point. And, we were patient. We just waited for breakdowns. |
Last season, we knocked off No.1 Lyman Hall early on and that was our landmark win. The Prep game was monumental for us. Even though the shots indicated it was one-sided, we played right with them. It gave us the confidence we needed to show we can play with anybody. |
Out goalie kept it out of the net. He did a good job. |
The irony is that the one-act festival isn't about the play, it's about the kids. The real gift is behind the scenes, seeing the kids working together, celebrating the arts. That's what it's all about. |
Their line really connected tonight. |
Tyler hasn't flinched one bit since the start of the season. It's a lot to put on a freshman, starting our first three games in a row at the D-1 level. He's fundamentally sound and very energized. He made some quality saves, especially at the end. Tyler is just a phenomenal player. |
We knew they were a good skating team. We came out trying to force their hand with some hitting and our guys got caught up in that a little bit too much. We lost sight of the puck and they're a very good team. They find their open players very well. |
