felt hard legs practiced
I couldn't get my legs going. I felt terrible. We practiced very well (Sunday), too. We didn't have our legs at all. When they got up by two, it was hard to get through them. It's disappointing, but we have to find answers.
lose rather
I'd rather lose by 25 or 30 points.
attitude character dave good great hockey instilled prepare proud push team within
Dave is a very proud individual. He's a great character guy. It would be disrespectful to him if we let this be a distraction. He has instilled a good attitude within this hockey team - and that is to push forward. He would want us to get better and prepare for Friday's game.
gone huge step
Dave, he was a huge part of this team. I think the way this has gone on, we all take this personally. We all need to step up.
discipline hard intensity takes work
It's all about intensity and discipline. If you don't want to work hard and do the little things it takes to be successful, you won't play. We're still working on that, but we've come a long way.
cost fourth huge missed possibly sick team totally
That fourth goal, it's totally my fault. That's a play I have to make 10 out of 10 times, and I missed the puck. I cost our team a huge point, and possibly two. I feel sick and that's inexcusable.
situation
They'll say the same thing. I like the situation we're in.
certain change mount pressure seems
Things change in the playoffs. Pressure seems to mount on certain players. Some play good, some don't.
aspects good happen hard players pride work
Absolutely. This was about pride and it showed our players that if we work hard in all aspects of the game, good things happen and you have good outcomes.
later morning night point track
It's getting to the point where every day you have to track where you've been. If we get there at 3 o'clock in the morning and play later that day, you're only there one day. But if you get in the night before you were there, two.
difficult effort games league learn next slip start winning
It was a difficult one to let slip away, but the effort was there. We have to learn from it and get better and start winning games in our league next week.
carry club gone good happen hockey huge looking past realize situation step team
I think with the situation with David, and he's a huge part of this team, with the way that it's gone on I think we all take it personally. We all need to step up. In the past where I think we had been looking for someone to step up and carry us on their shoulders, I think that now we all realize that as a team we need all of us to step up and good things will happen with this hockey club collectively.
hard hype sit
It's hard. You have the hype and you sit there.
cap definitely entire feather happy nice score sheet sign yale
It's nice to sign a score sheet with nothing but Yale goals. I'm really happy for Alec. This is definitely a feather in his cap, and a feather in the cap for the entire defense.
