I think we match up very well with them. I hope the players are all business tonight, knowing the playoffs are coming up and knowing we match up well with our opponent. We'll work real hard the next week-and-a-half.

We have a tough stretch of games coming up, and hopefully we can build on the effort we put in on Saturday and move forward and finish the year strong.
capable challenged couple hope leaders players running seniors step time
I hope a couple of the players step up. I challenged our seniors over the weekend. I told them their time is running out and that they're capable of more. And we are as a team. But we go as our leaders go.
glaring hopefully mistakes played time together watching younger
After the game, I thought we played all right. But after watching the tape, we didn't play well at all. We made a lot of glaring mistakes that shouldn't be made at this time of the year. And it wasn't just our younger guys. Hopefully we can put it all together for one game.
best capable earlier effort good hockey hope last loss played playing struggling
That was some of the best hockey we played was earlier in the year. I hope we get back to that because we've been struggling lately. I thought we had a good effort at Lakeland (in a 5-1 loss last Tuesday), but we're still capable of playing better hockey.
aggressive few job nice penalties penalty people
I thought we did a nice job on the penalty kill tonight. We got a lot of different people in. We had a few penalties, but they were aggressive penalties ? hard-working penalties.
cameron five gotten maybe people putting satisfied tyler vote
I thought so. I thought putting five on was good. I thought maybe Tyler Cameron could have gotten a vote here or there, but I was satisfied with five people on there.

We came out real flat. We had a good third period and overtime. We peppered their goalie, and he made some big saves.

We always get great crowds here. We played some of our best hockey that weekend.

He's a skilled player who has been able to put the puck in the net on a regular basis. Jesse also took more of a leadership role this season and is a very solid player.
entire fine game job solid year
He had another solid game for us. He did a fine job for us all year and his entire career.
behind games handed
This was just one of those games where we got it handed to us. We'll put it behind us, and we'll play better (today).
above beaten hard might obviously
Obviously if we had beaten Medford, it would have been hard for them to be seeded above us. It might still be hard for them.
against game moved solid somebody tough
Northland Pines will be a real tough game. They've moved up to No. 2 in the state. We need to go out and play hard. Somebody has to lose. If we come out and play a solid game against them and lose, then so be it.
