Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats '12-'13 Post Season - The view from the top...
I'm looking at it this way: our struggles over the past 4-6 weeks were due in large part to all the distractions of being ranked at the top. The media pressure alone had to be unbearable. While I'm sure that hasn't gotten any better, this is crunch time. It's all one-and-done from here. The seniors are going to have a say in Saturdays game. They all know it could be the last of their college career and I'm sure none of them want to go without a fight.
All any of us can ask of this team is to play with heart and desire... to leave it all on the ice. Win or lose, if they do that then I can accept any outcome. Sure, a loss will be disappointing, but at the end of the day, they have given me more as a fan this year than I ever thought possible.
