close coming completion dame effective effort figured goals goes good knew power share year
I thought that we had a very good effort today. We knew coming in that Notre Dame would get its share of penalties. And, because our power play has been so effective this year (a close to 50-percent completion rate), we figured that we'd get some goals that way. But, again, it goes back to the bounces and the luck. We need to find a little.
afraid anyone behind believe breaks challenge early fell finding onto quite seem shots sticks team today
I believe that this is a team that can play with anyone in the state. We're not afraid to go out there and challenge other teams. Unfortunately, today we fell behind early and that's never good. I think that we were a little off and it showed from the other night. And, quite frankly, the breaks just don't seem to be going our way. The pucks aren't quite finding their way onto sticks when they should and shots are going just wide.

We're really looking forward to the Prep game. After all, they have the premier hockey program in Connecticut. But I've warned the guys that we have five games to play before then. It's way too dangerous to look too far ahead.
haven moments time west win
We had our moments where I thought we were going to put this one away. Then West Haven would come right back. When you're in need of a win big time like they were, those things will happen.
