Steve Mullins Quotations

We know what we're playing for. We know what we're going to Milwaukee for. It's just a matter of us keeping everyone focused. I think we were really focused last weekend, which was why we were able to be so successful.

When we scored that second goal of ours there was no way in my mind that this game was going to end in a loss for us. I absolutely thought we were coming back and going to take control.

Letting kids out of our schools who don't know how to read and write, it's always been morally indefensible and now it's economically indefensible as well.

Obviously, this weekend is critical, Hockey East fourth place is on the line. As far as the national picture goes this is huge for us too. We can't lose to teams that are as high as they are.

Bubba is tremendous with his feet. He has running skills. Hopefully, over time, we can develop his pass-catching skills. Obviously, he's such a good athlete, we've got to figure out a way to make sure he touches the ball.

Given the circumstances, I've been pleased with the work we've been able to do this spring.

I think we were really focused last weekend. Hopefully we can carry that off one final weekend.

It all comes down to a team defense. It's not one line or one set of defense or Bishop in net that is going to shut them down. It's going to take a full team effort and everyone playing their best and being in position.

When you're talking about two gym floors, (the estimations are) not bad.

We've been playing really good hockey over the last couple months. Once our forwards get working down low, there's almost no stopping them. When they're working hard, we're a tough team to beat. We roll four lines, our depth is something that's going to help. It's a matter of us getting hot at the right time.

At 6-7, he's the tallest goalie I've ever played with, that's for sure. It probably helps with screens.

It would be a pleasant surprise if he could play next year.

Streaks don't mean anything. We have snapped some pretty long streaks this year. What we did in the past doesn't mean a whole lot. It's what we do this weekend and how we prepare that is going to matter.

As a new board member, I've been out there and seen what they do. They do amazing stuff out there.

It's odd. But he covers a lot of the net and does great things with his size and uses it to his advantage, so more power to him.

It's always fun to be surprised at the Senior Bowl. There have been some Senior Bowls in the past where they played a whole quarter and I didn't know what was going on.

It's always disappointing for spring to end. As coaches we finally see that progress, and it's always at the tail end of spring.

It's great to get a second chance, that's for sure. It's in the past but you never really forget that feeling. No one likes being the one to lose, especially when you get that close.

They definitely did a lot of things right to disrupt us. I don't really know what to say about it. They got on us and we're able to get at us in our own end.
