Tim Coghlin Quotations

He's still making five or six huge saves a night and sometimes more. He's on his mark. He's not diving side to side. He's not sliding around his crease. He's square, he's set, and if you beat him, you beat him with a good shot.

The team has played so well defensively. Even though we're nicked up, (the defense) just keeps plugging away and doing its job.

It just doesn't matter. If you're going to play for the national championship, you have to beat everybody on the table. And for us right now, this is a three-game series. If you start looking ahead, it will be a one-game series, and that's a fact.

I thought we were just a little off all night, and that was just another example of that. When we thought we could turn this thing around and change the momentum, we weren't able to.

Does it burn? It certainly burns me. And it burns me because I thought we had the personnel available tonight and we didn't come through with the victory. Any time that happens, you should be upset about it. I am sure our guys will be too.

I can't imagine that it will (end the season), but it's out of your control. That's the point. Would I be upset if we don't get a call? Of course I will. But we lost the opportunity to control our destiny when we lost this game, plain and simple.

That's the type of play that we need going down the stretch. I can't say enough about Kyle and how he bounced back.

He's one of those kids that (shoots) it from odd spots, but (it goes) crossbar and in. He's a goal scorer. He's capable of scoring goals in bunches. For the majority of this second semester what I've seen from Andy Cote is I've seen him every day with a smile on his face, moving his feet, and he wants to be on the ice. He wants to get double shifted; that looks like a (player) to me that's hungry.

Everything seems to be falling in line. We are getting some solid play. We are continuing to get good offensive opportunities off good defensive play.

Streaks are meant to be broken, and it had to come to an end. It takes the pressure off Kyle and takes the pressure off everybody, and we can just go out and play next week.
