It's good for the guys to be a part of that, but we'd trade every one for a championship.
They've just been on fire. They're winning games for us. They're all skilled guys who can play in the American Hockey League and they bring a work ethic to the table.
The guys are rolling. We played a real good team and I'm glad we rose up to the challenge. We needed to improve against the top teams in the league and tonight was a big step for us.
They're well coached, they've got good character guys and they've got good talent. I see some similarities to us, but I don't know about well coached.
They've all bought into our system and they're seven hard-working guys committed to playing defense and trying to help us win. They're a huge part of this team. We're almost as good defensively as we are offensively.
Guys are accountable. They know what our identity is; they're hard-working and defense-minded. We want to be hard to play against.
We're trying to make sure the guys still push. When the weather gets nicer, the girls get a little better looking and sometimes the guys start laying by the pool ... we want to make sure our focus is still on hockey.
It's fun to come to the rink. It's a different atmosphere. The guys are more focused, and I know they're up for the challenge.
