Interviews from 3/17 games

Adam McKinley (Yeti and Eagles fill in)

1. 7-5 loss to the knights last night. What can you say about the overall team effort? The effort was great. That's something I never have to worry about with this group. They give it their all every game.

2. What do you think went wrong in the 3rd period? I had a couple bad bounces, a little miscommunication and I let in more goals than I should have.

3. Two games of hockey last night and lots of hockey last Thursday night. How are you feeling following all the hockey? I'm feeling pretty good. I'm lucky, I really don't need a recovery period.

4. We did something a little different and tried to draft teams for Laken’s tournament based on the quality of the goalies. How do you think the quality of the games turned out for the tournament? I think the teams were pretty even and it made for some fast paced fun hockey. Any team could have won it, if they could have beaten ours.

5. Knights are still unbeaten despite taking some teams best shots this season. Do you think they are better now than previous seasons? They're getting better all the time. I mean you got Noah, who is only 16 and a dominant force already and gets better every game. They can only keep getting better.

Josh Clontz (Eagles)

1. 8-4 win over the colonials last night. What can you say about the overall team effort in the win?  The effort on and off the court was great! We got a big win in what was a very close game for more than 2 periods. Someone found time to fill Foradori's shoes with water. Then we had pizza ready for us at the club after the game... big effort all around!

2. You guys pulled away in the 3rd period. What do you think you guys did better at as the game went on?  big effort all around! I think the third period was a combination of things, we are really starting to work well as a team, and the Colonials looked like they needed a couple subs

 3. Zac Gray got his first win since joining you guys. What have you observed from him so far? The #1 thing I notice is that Zach is fast! He also has good hands, and he is good at finding open space. I'm glad to be playing with him and not against him!

4. A lot of lefties on this team. Do you think its easier for a lefty to pass to a lefty or a righty to pass to a righty? Honestly, I never gave it a thought until you asked. So, I guess, personally, it's irrelevant.

5. Adam has had to play a lot of goalie for you guys this season in Henrys absence? How do you think he has done? He has played very well for us. Even in back to back games he is locked in and gives 100% for a team that is going to knock him out of the playoffs.

Clint (Knights and Colonials Fill In)

1. 2 games of hockey last night and lots of games last Thursday night. How are you feeling after all the hockey?  Feeling great! Lil sore in the legs but nothing crazy! I enjoy playing more than once a week! Great exercise!

 2. You guys got down early but had a good ending. What do you think you guys did better at as the game went on? I think we just stuck to it! They got a couple early bounces their way and we didn't let that rattle us too much!

3. Yeti did not have Zach but had Cody. How do you compare the two of them when it comes to playing style? That a tough one cuz their very similar! U can't give them any open space to get a shot or they'll make ya pay! They both have alot of speed too which makes it tough sometimes if they get an odd man rush going the other way!

4. Rumor has you guys picking up Zach and Wadds for the summer. What will those 2 bring to the team for you?  ) Defense! We have plenty of offensive playmakers on our team but we lack a lil more D depth! They both have good shots from the point which will make our overall offense even better! Can't wait for Brockway to kick off! Nothing like outdoor hockey!

5. You also goalied for the Colonials against the Eagles last night. What did you observe from the eagles last night as you have to play them again next week?   Their a solid team all around! Can't take ur foot off the gas playing against them! And they have a guy that makes it hard to focus...always punching and swinging his stick at people's heads! If he'd focus a lil more on hockey, he might be able to get a goal every now and again!
