<p><em>On the team&#8217;s offensive chances:</em> &#8220;We had some good looks. Started to get pucks to the net. Some bounces the other way, probably would&#8217;ve had a one or two goal lead.

<p><em>On the team&#8217;s attitude through three games:</em> &#8220;That&#8217;s why you play seven. Our group still feels really good. Really confident in our ability.

I mean, you gotta call if both ways in my opinion, if you&#8217;re gonna do it that way. Otherwise you let it play. Which I&#8217;m fine with either way, but you&#8217;d like to see it be balanced.
