"We have talked at length about our defense," commented head coach Phil Sweeney. "We have been very stingy so far this season in giving up goals. Our goaltending has been great and that is the key to good team defense. This weekend we played very good hockey, we used our team speed all around the ice in not only shutting them down but on our offensive attack."
