amount certain controlled goals score
I thought we controlled the play for a certain amount of time. We just weren't able to score any goals.
earlier fourth joseph swimming team third time year
I think St. Joseph is a much better team that they were in December. Their third and fourth swimmers are swimming much better this time of year than they were earlier in the year.
definitely exciting helped matter pieces
Eli's going to be an outstanding quarterback, no matter what the setting. It's just exciting to see these pieces come together. It's definitely helped him develop, no question.
competition regardless spots
There are always spots to be won, regardless of position. I think you can look at our lineup and see where the competition is. I think that's probably obvious, but nothing is ever etched in stone.
define four good group playing starting three
We've been playing consistently good for three or four weeks, but not always getting the results. This group is starting to define itself.
certainly decisions difficult guys handful knocking manage plays remains
We have a handful of guys right there who are knocking on the door. How that plays out remains to be seen, but that will be something we will try to manage on a day-to-day or a week-to-week basis. We will certainly have some difficult decisions to make.

We've had a number of calls from companies in utter chaos. They're at risk of losing their business, especially small and mid-sized companies.

duration expectation game hockey last minute overtime tonight win
When you get a 5-on-3 in the last minute of the game and a 4-on-3 for that duration in the overtime (3:11), your expectation is to win the hockey game. We didn't do that tonight and that's disappointing.
certainly good scoring third
We certainly generated enough scoring chances, especially in the third period. On most nights, enough to win. Biron made some good stops, especially down the stretch.
execute power
We didn't execute on the power play and that was the difference.
advance against certain combine cost hard looking move ourselves penalties potent power puck short simple team tough
We make it hard on ourselves in certain situations. We've got opportunities to advance the puck and move the puck, simple options, short options, and we're looking for the better play and it's cost us. You combine that with some avoidable penalties against a team like this, that has a potent power play, and it's tough to win.
deserved fate fought obviously stretch tough
We are obviously going through a tough time, but we are going in the right direction. We really competed down the stretch and fought our way back. I thought we deserved a better fate.
coming heart
We showed a lot of heart by coming back.
