"I am really proud of the whole team. Four games in a row on the road, a tough loss over the weekend, a lot of banged-up players, and we just had a great overall team effort.

Lake Forest was 5-0 and shutting everyone down defensively, and they had no answers for our offense today.

Transition clears and face-offs were the best and most consistent we had this season.

We had so many guys have their best game of the season, and it was really nice to get some guys' confidence that needed a boost.

Our captain leadership today was great and helped us really push forward in that second half."
