I was very happy the way we turned it up in the third. We elevated our game and made it hard for them to do anything.
We came out and played with a purpose. We played hard and smart for the most part. We know Everett is a good team and they deserve our best. We were pretty hungry all night.
Roman has really played hard and much better. He's always had the talent and now he's really playing hard in the less glamorous parts of the game.
In all the games we've played there have been a ton of penalties. We're definitely not underestimating the need to get better on the power play. It's something we're working hard on every day.
I fully expect that we will regroup and be ready to play against Everett. We don't have the luxury of having guys who can score even when they are having an average performance. We seem to have to work hard for every goal.
It wasn't just a matter of them having a couple of points in those high-scoring games. When they play hard and play well, it's nice to see them get rewarded, but they were playing well before then.
It was a simple approach, but effective. We worked hard tonight and so did they.
