17 Quotes by Mike McShane

New England's playing very well. They're loose and they have most of their kids back. They have a great power play and their goalie is tops. It's going to be a tough game.

Right now, I feel good about our team.

I'd like to see us at practice step it up a little more. Our confidence should be better and when your confidence is high, you should loosen up and play better.

We're playing the No. 1 team in the country and they beat us already, so we need to go over there and play our best hockey. We know what we have to do. They're a great team and we need to get better to beat them. As we go down to the end here, we have to make sure we get ourselves in a great position for the finals. But right now we have to concentrate on Middlebury.

I think it's great. We've done it every year since the conference began and I think that says a lot about the program and the players. It's not easy and every year everybody is going for you. We take it one game at a time and don't get too far ahead of ourselves. Now we're getting close to the playoffs and we still have a big weekend ahead of us with Colby and Bowdoin.

I thought we had control of the whole game. I thought we played very well except for a penalty here and there that they scored on. It was a great game.

I thought our seniors did a really good job. We won 22 games. It's been a great season and I just think it ended a little too early. I thought we dominated all three periods. To lose a game like that is hard.

I think Brian had a great year, especially down the stretch. He was a terrific leader and a great contributor. He certainly will be missed.

We had a tough schedule down the road as we always do. History is we try to get four out of the six (games) and we went 3-2-1, which was a little disappointing since we beat Middlebury in the first game.
