aspects effort expect few games good last mental return team top
I expect a real good effort and a competitive effort. I expect a team that is more accountable when it comes to the mental aspects of the game. We weren't very accountable these last few games and we need to return to the top of our game.

You always hope that your known goal scorers play well in the big games. Hopefully she steps forward and contributes as well as many of her teammates.
change complex earlier finding found games goals late score scoring struggled ways
We have struggled a little with scoring goals. In earlier games this season, we found ways to score goals late in the game and we just haven't been finding ways to do that lately. One goal can really change the complex of a game.
extremely good offensive overall played plenty solid
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.
character game heart maine players
The players had the character, heart and resiliency to show that the game up in Maine was a fluke.
carry collect played seem tempo
We did not play very well tonight. We were a little tentative and Quinnipiac played with a lot of tempo and a lot of pace. We didn't really carry play tonight. A lot is gauged by how well we collect passes, and we didn't seem to collect pucks tonight.
across defense entire middle rink stretch work
We need to try not to stretch the defense across the entire rink. We have to work from the middle of the rink out.
came extra game
We didn't quit. It was a dead-even game - Northeastern just came up with one extra goal.

We are having a little trouble scoring against the top teams. We've got to get screens, tips and deflections and make some pretty plays. Hopefully we will take advantage of our opportunities.
coming fast game locker loose nervous played
We could have played with more confidence. We were a little nervous coming into this game and there was a little uncertainty in our locker room. BC, meanwhile, played fast and loose hockey.
