Kids in Moose Factory and kids around the whole area were amazed that I was playing at (the junior level).

Most goalies just drop. I was looking for that spot just over his pad.

Obviously our record speaks for itself, the numbers. It's been quite a turnaround. It's great to have a player like Joe on the line.
|
That was nice. Anytime you can get and jump on them right away, and get a lead, kinda gets them back on their heels and gives us some momentum, and gets the crowd into it.
|
The first couple of shifts we sustained pressure in their end, and had good control. When you spend that much time in their end, I think everybody gets a little more energized.
|
The last time we played them we came out a little bit flat and they played a really good, solid road game. So it's nice to come in here and to the same thing to them. I think we matched them a little bit better physically than we did at home, and we matched their intensity for the whole game.

The puck's just been finding me in the right spots.

There was still an angle there. I knew he was paying attention to the other side of the net. Joe made a great pass and I basically just tried to get it on net and get it up a bit where he'd have trouble controlling it.
|
There were a lot of penalties out there, so there were a lot of chances for special teams. Both teams just took advantage of it.
|
They actually had a (men's) team that was basically made up of my uncles and my dad. I just watched them since I was a little kid. They are all hockey fanatics.
|
They battled hard after coming out flat in the first period. We jumped out to an early lead but we started to make it too difficult on ourselves and they got right back into it. It was nice to get that third one to get the guys going again.
|
They play a similar style. For us, we've got to get up in their face and stop them before they can get going. We're still probably the fastest team. We need to get our defense up in the play to snuff out their forwards so they don't get a chance to get out on the breaks.
|
They used to put me in front of the TV when I was just a little kid, and that's the only time I would be quiet, my mom said.
|
They were loud out there.
|
They were missing some guys and they have older players, too, so we knew we had to come out hard and take it to them.
