They Said It:
Steve Martinson: "It was a fun night behind the bench. We made a lot of nice plays today. We still need to shoot more on the power play. I thought Sillinger (Lukas) made several nice plays. He set up Harrison nicely on his hat trick goal. Overall, it was a great win for us today."
Harrison Blaisdell: "In order to score that goal you need a great pass from a linemate and that was the case today. It was a great team win for us today. We'll celebrate this one tonight and then get ready for Idaho next weekend."
Danny Katic: "I'm feeling really good out there right now. It's all about hard work and being in the right place. It was nice to come back and beat these guys after a tough loss on Friday."
