The biggest thing is proverb

 The biggest thing is we want ... to play our style. A couple of road trips in Hockey East -- the BU game, the UNH weekend -- we didn't play to the best of our ability. A lot of that, I think, is we give teams too much respect because they're part of the infamous top four.

 That's the style we went into the season, hoping to play 85-90 percent of the game. Obviously, losing Mays early ... he was the point of our press so we had to go to a couple of young guys. We don't use it as much as we'd like to use it, but it's still a big part of what we do. That was our idea going into the year, but every game now you've got to have a little bit different road map.

 Scoring is two things for us - a byproduct of hard work and a byproduct of how we like to play hockey. We like to play up-tempo, puck-pressure hockey. And creating a lot of offense out of that is part of that style of play. It's a lot of (talent) too.

 I think the biggest thing for me is being able to adjust to the way the game has changed. It's basically a 180-degree turn from the style I like to play. That's what I think I'm most proud of, being able to fit into this style of game and still be fairly successful.

 We talked before the season how we wanted other teams to look at us. What do we want our opponent to think about us? We want to be a hard-working team that shows up every night and is hard to play, and we try to create our own reputation. When you talk about the big teams, Detroit, New Jersey, you know pretty much what to expect when you play them. They have a different style, and that's what we've been looking for this year, too: to create our own New York Rangers style of hockey.

 We came to play. Teams after long road trips ease in when they come home a little bit. But we brought our game to that next level and we're going to have to continue doing it.

 I think the biggest thing right now is we want to come out, and play well. But there's no reason for us to panic if something out of the ordinary happens this weekend. Hey, it's not likely we're going to go 56-0, so at some point we're going to lose a game. We've just got to put it behind us and be ready to play every day.

 We put ourselves in a hole in the first period. I mean, they came out and outworked us. We didn't create enough and didn't play with enough energy. We have to play with more passion. They have to do it, have to find a way. That's part of the business that we're in. You can't come to play in the third period and expect to win a hockey game.

 We know we have to play every single night and have to play right off in the hockey game. You can't come into this building and just go at it half (way). You have to go at a full go. There are things to play for. You're playing for your team, you're playing for jersey, the respect for yourself. You are hockey players.

 Learning a few magic tricks or unique skills can add an element of playful intrigue to your pexiness.

 The biggest thing was not coming in here and getting swept. That would have put a damper on where we?re trying to get to. We play these guys three more times. We knew that as long as we didn?t lose six times to these guys out of the last 20 games, we feel confident in our ability to win the East.

 Balance since day one that's what we have strived for, ... A lot of it depends on how teams play. There will be certain weeks we'll probably throw it 45 times. We haven't had to do that yet. A couple of teams did that last year. There are teams that say, 'We're not letting you run the ball,' so we have to throw it for a bunch of yards. Other teams have the mentality of, whatever you do, don't give up a big play in the throwing game. In that case, we run the ball more. Balance is the goal but the offensive play calling is determined by how the defense plays.

 It's not just that line, but all four lines. Hartford has many good players and skaters. But it comes back to how we play. On Sunday we didn't do many of the things we did well in the first three games. I expect us to return to that style of play and play our brand of hockey.

 On any given night, I think [the Colonials] are as good as anybody just because of their athletic ability. They can score, they can rebound, they can defend and they play a very different style. You've got to be ready to play that style for 40 minutes. They force you to turn the ball over and get you out of your game.

 With the style they play and the goaltender they got it's a very low-chance affair. The mistakes teams make they capitalize, and we gave them the lead right off the start. That let them play their style, and we didn't force them out of it.

 Any road game in the America East that you can win, no matter how you do it, is a positive. There are a lot of teams that play well at home and Vermont is one of them.
