Gregg Amore Quotations

Short series, and we didn't play like we're capable of playing. We didn't show up (Saturday). Today, you saw the real East Providence team. A couple bounces here or there, and things could have been different.

Mt. Hope and North Kingstown are both physical teams. We'll have a battle if we get there. They did the right thing with the seeds. They did it based on record not division winners. St. Ray's is on a collision course with North Smithfield in the semis. It should be interesting.

I think that was our best game of the year.

Our guys are eager. They're ready to go. We'd like to play tonight if we could.

North Providence is young. They're inexperienced. They have some goal scorers. But I think we have the skating advantage. They're obviously a decent team or they wouldn't be in the playoffs. We don't take any team lightly. But I think we have the speed and depth advantage.

That team is good. They could smell it. They're very strong in front of the net, and we had problems with their size all weekend. The one key difference was their size because we got out-strength a little bit. I thought we had five to eight scoring chances thwarted by them because they we just stronger than us.

The best thing about the weekend was how we played in our defense zone. Our coverage was great. That was the thing I was most worried about go in, and we tightened it up tremendously.

The game wasn't as close as the score would indicate. Cam had one of his worst games of the year. I think he only faced something like 10 shots.
