Quotes:
Head Coach Pat Coyle, "It feels good to win back-to-back games. We knew as a group going in to it that we had our work cut out for us be we really try to focus on what our next task is. We'll enjoy this tonight then get ready for next weekend."
#39 Goalie Steven Fryer, "At the end of the day, when our backs were against the wall, we answered the bell and that shows the character in our locker room. We could have used excuses galore, like we were tired from traveling, but the character of our locker room wouldn't let that happen"
