If we can go out and provide a spark for our team, then we feel like we're doing on our job.

If we go out there on our first shift and we bang some bodies or even if we get hit, that gets us into the game right away. If we get the puck in the zone and work down low the first shift of the game, that gives us confidence for the rest of the game and it's something that we can build off.

We didn't come out and dictate like we needed to do. We sat back after we got the 2-0 lead, and against a team like North Dakota and how hard they work, when we sit back it's hard to come back.

After we got the 2-0 lead, we stopped dictating.

When we get a lead, we have a tendency to sit back.

(I'm) working hard on it.
