Rick Comley Quotations | Page 2

This was a tremendously hard-fought game. The game had great speed and intensity, and the referee decided to let the teams play. We have won a lot of close games, so this was not unusual for us.

We knew coming in how good their power play was. And obviously, we played right into their game.

We got a big tie for us and nationally, that's going to help us and steady us so we'll take the point.

This tastes really good, but it's one more step in the process. We're going to enjoy this.

This team has worked their tails off and I'm proud of them. They feel good right now and they should.

This team is completely the new one. Last year's team was the end of the carryover. I think the group of seniors last year wished they had played for Ron.

It means a lot. It's a proud program with a rich, rich tradition. Obviously it feels good.

They're as pleasantly surprised as anybody that the numbers are where they are. They've been very steady, very consistent. They're for real.

They're obviously a battle-tested team and we knew coming into here that they're a big-game program. Their experience I thought was a factor. They got the jump on us before we could settle down. This was a learning game for us and hopefully we can take it to the next level.

They're an older, bigger, stronger team, and those teams have given us a little bit of trouble at times because we're a younger team.

He's missed so much time. The darn injuries the last couple years have really slowed his growth down, and now he's getting games in consecutive fashion and I think he's responding very well to that.

He's not afraid to step forward and get it done, and it's a perfect scenario for us.
