We couldn't find anyone, and the team knows Dave from the times he's skated with us. You hope in this situation that Dave doesn't have to play, and the plan is to have Jeff play the entire weekend.
We've skated a man short in our lineup lately, and Jeff helps us fill that void. He brings an added dimension of grit that will complement our team in the area of toughness.
Mike's a good skater with quick hands, and he's one of those guys who has the natural ability to be in position to score. One of his main strengths is following his own shot. He's great at being in position to get the rebound and put it in the net.
They've both come in and helped. Ned is a good shooter and generates offense. Jeff skates well and has helped our defense.
I thought he was a very good skater with skills, and I like his work ethic. He's one of the first guys here every day.
It's frustrating because we really skated with them. We had our opportunities to put this game away.
