Steve Staios Game Quotations

That was as big as they get at this time of the year. We knew we needed it. We didn't want to put too much pressure on it, but we certainly knew this was a huge game for us.

We were going go win the game ? we said it. I don't know if we all believed it, but we have come back in years before, especially at home.

We needed to bounce back from that Minnesota game. We played well enough to win but lost because of a couple bad breaks. Sometimes a game like that can really set a team back.

It was two pretty opportunistic goals by them. That's going to happen. They're a great team. You can't walk away with a game when it's these guys.

Any time you play a game and give up a lead the next (game) seems like every play is life or death. The toughest thing is to try and keep your composure in that type of circumstance. We knew we really needed it. We didn't want to put too much pressure on it but this was a huge game for us.

You can't have enough leadership. To me a great leader is someone who plays every game with his heart on his sleeve. That's Gator.
