Ralph Russo Played Quotations

Give our guys credit for playing shorthanded. Corey Weber really played great on defense. He's filled in well all year where ever he's played. They (Saints) were not deep but their first line can really skate and they can play with anyone.

I don't think we've played our best hockey yet. But they are finding ways to win.

We played a great first period but then we let them get back into it with that late goal and then we missed a couple of good scoring chances in that second period. But to our credit we came back strong in the third.

We have eight seniors, and seven of them have played through some lean years. They're a feisty bunch and they want to win.

That first period was maybe the best period we've played all year. We played smart, moved the puck well and the whole bench was into it. We need to work on keeping our focus like that for three periods.

It was just nice to get back on the ice after such a long layoff. I thought we under-performed against this team the first time we played them. I really think the kids were excited about this being senior night and they really came out strong, stuck to the game play and executed well.
