They've probably got some of the top forwards in the game. We've just got to contain them. We have to play a grinding, hard, tight style and show that we can win the one-goal games.

I was a little nervous at first, but once the game got going and I started sweating, I started feeling really good. I tried to get myself really focused (Sunday) night and (yesterday), and that seemed to help.

Every game it seems like we're taking 10 penalties. It's like 'uncle.' We just can't do that anymore. We're playing losing hockey.

We wanted an individual with experience in the game who could serve as a mentor. On top of that, he's a first-class individual who knows how much baseball means to the area.

He plays with some grit, ... He's going to be one of our top six forwards even when everyone gets back.

One of the top three should probably win the tournament, but if the rest of us bring our A-game and they slack up, we have a chance.
