hak pre game
cornell plays more defensive than harvard. harvard plays a 1-2-2 in neutral zone. more aggresive in areas. good hockey tradition. road games out east are very valuable in team building. you learn a awful lot. this weekend is a major opportunity to take a step forward. in order at harvard we havce to play very well. evan's worked hard all year and he came back after scacth and played great.one night after great game he gets injured. fienhage playing as he had good practices on tuesday and wednesday. harvard isnt fancy. little like trip to duluth. for portions we didnt outwork our oppenent and thats the key. i like the way we have worked. you have to make your own bounces and work for those. you work for them and once they come your way it can snowball. we need a quick start and get furst goal. works our butts off and have fun. one of their players at harvard had the sioux games circled on their schedule. big series for both teams and we need to take advantage of these important non conference games. will be a packed barn and i knwo they have had this circled on their sdchedule for a while

danato - harvard coach
north dakota is a huge draw everywhere as they should be. we are happy to have them here and many are look forward to these game. we havnt played smart hockey overall. we want it to be a home advantage tonight against und. has a lot of respect an aith for hak and coaches. carey eades as well, played with dane jackson in minors. they will get better and right the ship. i expect them to be a tam that makes big noise in 2nd half of season. great test for us. they have guys they would like to have more output from and they are a dangerous team. we are lookng for some of our guys to erupt as well. we like to play with speed and skill and think we are sound defensivley and been top 2 or 3 scoring team last few yars. we havnt hit our stride yet.w atch for #3 on the blueline. buffalo draft pick. doug rogers #15, slow start but can explode. our goaltender has been key, a freshman matt hoyle. very good stats overall
