«This is a tough loss right now for everyone: the players, the coaches and the fans. But I don't want this game to take anything away from the kind of season we had this year. I'm proud of every kid on this team for getting us to this point. Making it to state has put us on the hockey map. Now our goal is to continue to play at this kind of level. Believe me, we want to get back here. This was a great experience today.»

«Power plays and penalty kills are all about momentum. In fact, that's the way the game of hockey is played. One team gets the momentum and that's it. Today, Stevens Point did a good job killing our power plays. I think we only got one or two good shots when we had them a man down. Hats off to them. They played a very solid game today. We showed some inexperience and nerves today. Our goal now is to get back here again next year and try again. We've come a long way in a short time. The kids were great all season long.»

«This is a great accomplish?ment for the kids to be playing at state. Nobody believed in us all season. But that didn't matter. We believed in ourselves. We knew if we played the kind of hockey we're capable of, we had a chance.»

«The guy's a proven hitter his whole life. Ever since he's been playing pro ball, he's been doing damage. Get him healthy and in the lineup and we'll score some runs.»
