Quotes
Chicago Forward Tyler Carpenter
On The Positives From The Loss: "We worked hard, we had a lot of good spurts, a lot of good pushes. We saw that if we took our game to them they couldn't handle it, so if we do that for a full 60 tomorrow, I think we'll have a good chance of winning the hockey game."
Chicago head coach Greg Moore
On The Game: "To a point, you've got to simplify and just get back to playing harder. When a team plays you hard like that, I think it's a good challenge for our kids to match that and/or surpass it."
