I think parenting these days is definitely different from when a lot of people grew up. As much blame as we give a lot of our kids for what they're not doing...

The 5-on-3 at the end of the first, they played it very well. They had the penalty killers working really hard. They didn't give us much. Credit to them, but there was a lot of hockey after that. When you spot that team three goals you're fighting an uphill battle.
