Hak post-game comments:
We got ourselves back on our heels a little bit at the beginning of the 3rd, which started the avalanche of PP's, but I like the way we handled it.
I don't know if there is such a thing as a good split, but we said this morning that was all there was left for us. DU is a good team, and we played a good game.
Both of Dunc's goal were big. The shorthanded one might have been the biggest one, because of the momentum change there for a little while. They're very high risk up top, and obviously you have to get a bounce of the puck and make a wise decision when to go for those. You need a little bit of an advantage, and we got a couple of those to create those plays.
I thought the most dangerous shots were through traffic from the point. There was a lot of shots from outside. The one we gave up last night, we got beat in front of our net. We wanted to make sure not to give that up tonight, and I thought we did a good job of that tonight. When your goaltender makes a save or 2, it gives your PK more confidence.
Excellent job this weekend for Phil. Both goaltenders did a good job this weekend.
I was pretty short in the locker room after the game and told them I was proud of their effort. At this point of the season, this is a must win. We have to get a split. A few months down the road, we can look back and think this is a good split.
I was happy to see Dunc score 2 tonight. Both were in his patented spot. It was nice to see. I know he's been pressing a bit, feeling he needs to score.
A couple of guys dinged up in the line-up tonight who just battled. May not have scored, but they battled hard.
