It gives us quality players back there and lots of depth. For a while there, we were playing with five 'D' for a whole month, I think and for a while we played with four 'D' for a little bit. You need the depth as you move on.
We played well in the first, and we didn't play well after that. Obviously, that's not good enough. We can't play 20 minutes.
We played 60 minutes. We defended with energy and we played with urgency.
Their goalie certainly played well, but we did not have the urgency we needed at the beginning of the game. For the first half of that game, we did not have the urgency that we needed. You've got to play like that for 60 minutes.
We just played smart, worked extremely hard. We did the little things we were working on, we did them well and we had success.
It's been an odd series for us. We played a good first period and then we let Quad City take the game to us in the second. We finally showed that urgency in the third.
