Overall I think we played extremely hard. We had plenty of offensive opportunities. I think Northeastern, while they played a solid game, they had some good fortune. |
People forget that we are predominantly an all-freshman team. When Jack Parker or Dennis Wolff's freshmen get tired they can fall back on their older players. I don't have a strong reliance on upperclassmen. |
She played great. There was one play that I think went a little unnoticed where, late in the game, she made a save where she just tipped a puck and it hit off the post instead of hitting an open net, and it was little things like that where she came up big for us tonight. |
She played tremendous. She has a huge impact on our team. With a team like ours, sometimes we need a few extra saves and she did that for us tonight. |
The amount of penalties has been a problem. It is a recurring theme and it doesn't help the cause. |
The biggest disappointment was our slowness in the first period. We did not play with continuity, while Providence played sound defensively. |
The first game against them was a game that they controlled. They played a top-notch game and we got a little intimidated. We never quite recovered from that. |
The first time we played them, their attack was pretty darn effective. They scored seven goals and made it look pretty easy. We didn't play smart, strong or quick enough to compete with them. |
The game was superlative and we gave a great effort. I saw tons of character with a sprinkling of frustration at the end. |
The goaltenders stood strong and kept it a tie. Give Brown a lot of credit for playing a great game. |
The most important thing is our belief that we can play a level game with this team. I want to see people moving around on the ice. It shows that you are loose and confident. |
The players had the character, heart and resiliency to show that the game up in Maine was a fluke. |
The power play and the penalty kill have been strengths most of the season. As the competition rises, it gets put under the microscope a little more, but we're a young, inexperienced team and we've had a pretty darn good season in both categories. |
The second period is a credit to Harvard. They can intimidate you with their speed, and we had to recreate a lot of offense for ourselves. |
The shutout was good for her confidence. She has had a wonderful season so far and it got her back into game rhythm after a long break. |
