It's a part of the game that a lot of people overlook, but we look at it as the start of our offense.
They started shaking off the cobwebs in the second quarter.
They started out very fast and were excited. They knew it (the game) was important. But they got a little complacent and let Pittsburgh fight their way back in.
They played hard and fought back. When you consider that this is the 11th team in the nation and we were within two goals with eight minutes to play -- that's pretty phenomenal.
Most penalties are a lack of concentration and that's what ate us up. We made some foolish penalties and had some concentration and focus issues.
The captains took charge keeping the team motivated and pumped up before the game. They were ramped up today.
I felt like Steve was missing some shots and they were making shots on him from the outside. I have Kyle on the side as my relief guy and he stepped up and did an excellent job and that got us back in the game a little.
