Our defense is the strongest part of our team. We pressured them out.

It wasn't going anywhere, and we had to exercise our options.

Boy, they stepped it up tonight. We know they're a great defense. They just took it to another level tonight.

Our defense was horrible. Not to take anything away from Lanesboro. They're going to do that to teams, but our defense was horrible.

We really just had a lack of aggressiveness tonight. Part of that was they played really smart defense.

The defense can't cross-check in front of the net and get you out of there like they used to, ... We're taking advantage.
