 Welcome to the Paul Cantabene Show presented by Buffalo Wild Wings. I'm Sam Murray, joined now with Stevenson Menzel Cross, head coach Paul Cantabene and coach 2020 starts just like every other year. Ranked opponent after ranked opponent after ranked opponent. Three of your games have been one goal games. What have you learned about your team so far? Well, I think we've learned a lot. You know, I think that we're starting to learn how to win games a little bit, but we're still making a lot of the plays to lose games and we just got to kind of clean that up. But I think they're a pretty mentally tough team. They're working hard. They want to be successful and they're invested into the process, which is great. And they really like each other. So I think, you know, our team chemistry is coming a long way. They're doing a lot of good things. And we hope that with the lessons we've learned over the first four games of the season, I'm going to start to come through this weekend in our next four or five games. Yeah, in the offensive end, you're starting attack is putting up points. And then that sophomore class that we talked about in the preseason has put up points. Just talk about, you know, that group. Well, I think our attack, we have a very special attack. You know, Ethan Christensen leading the way, obviously returning second team All-American for us. He's done such a great job being a leader. And then Jacob Tatum really coming along. He's such a talented, strong kid that can really shoot the ball so well. And and Will Smith really rounds them out being a great off ball guy that can shoot and ride and do all the little work that maybe the other two guys don't want to do. And then I know those sophomore midfielders, all of them have done a great job this year, especially Ryan Coleman. He's really stepped up to be an outstanding player for us and take a leadership role in that, you know, Cam Lighting has done a great job. He started for us a year ago, getting better. You know, Josh Brandon is really finding his way in there. And along with 34, Shane Ford doing a great job in that. But we got some other guys also doing some really good jobs in there, you know, obviously Harrington 77 for us is doing a great job mixing in that group and Louis Naughty, who's, you know, playing offense and defense for us. Wings of Faceoffs doing so much. So, you know, we're getting a lot of our guys, we're a young team and on the offensive end with all those midfielders there, but they're learning and I think we're getting better each day with them. Yeah. And then down the other end in Goldmark house, you know, it was a battle for that starting spot. He's has 10, at least 10 saves in three of those four games. Talk about his play. You know, Mark's been constant for us. You know, he's done a great job with such a young defense in front of him. You know, all the guys in front of him that started only four games in their careers. So, you know, he's kind of leading those guys and he's made some big saves for us. We need them to be probably a little more consistent at times. Yeah, he's getting there, but it's tough to do when you're trying to do so much more. So, he's held us in a lot of games, helped us probably won that your game for us and did a great job in the other games competing. And you know, we need Mark to continue to get better as the season goes on. But we got to help him a little bit too in front, you know, all those guys being young. We got to help him in front a little bit more to limit some of the quality shots the other teams are getting. For head coach Paul Cantamine, I'm Sam Murray and this has been the Paul Cantamine Show.
