 Welcome back to the Dominic Dolls show presented by Buffalo Wildwings. I'm Sam Murray, joined now with Stevenson Men's ice hockey head coach, Dominic Dolls, and coach. Started the weekend with a 2-2 UCHC tie versus Elmira on home ice, and then traveled to 11th ranked Hamilton. Shout out for the first time this year. Talk about your team's performance over the weekend. Well, I think the Elmira game, yeah, back and forth, pretty even game. And that's in the three times we've historically played them. That's really essentially what it's been, you know, a lot of just back and forth, pretty evenly matched, both fairly young teams. And just everybody kind of tried not to make a mistake. And I think that we got more of the same of that on Friday. And Sunday was a tough day. We've kind of talked a lot about it now already as a group and just kind of not happy about our performance and our work ethic. And we had a great opportunity there to make a statement. And we didn't. So it's a little disheartening. But that's what we play the game for, to kind of get back going this week and move forward. Yeah, special teams. The power play started red hot to begin the season. Cooled down a little bit, but still 25%, which is, I would say, a pretty decent percentage. But you haven't scored in the last three games on the power play. How do you go about correcting that? I think it's just we've been getting opportunities, which is a good thing. And you don't want to squeeze the stick too much to kind of overburden it. But we need to go to the tougher areas more. And that's really why we're not scoring goals. It's why we're not scoring goals 5-on-5. We're not willing to go to the dirty areas and get around the net and earn second and third chances. And that's really what we've kind of talked about for a little over a week now. And that's if we want to get back to scoring goals, that's what we're going to need to do. For us to be successful, we're going to have to outwork these teams, especially now as we start to really get into the thick of things. Schedule-wise, we're going to have to get to the net. And we're going to have to win some battles around the net. And going back to Sunday, that's what we didn't do. So I think even for the power play, if we want the power play to get kind of back on track, we got to get to the net. Well, you have an opportunity this weekend, a pair of games versus Buffalo State non-conference games. You played them twice last year, split with them. They're unbeaten four of their last five. So what do you expect from that matchup coming up? It's going to be another tough matchup. I mean, they were consistently a top 15 team last year. They've got some guys that can play. We went up there last year, and we struggled the first night. And we're a little bit overwhelmed. And then to our credit, I think the second game last year kind of got us going and got us on track. And we were, I think, down 2-0 going in the third period and battled back and scored four goals in the third to win. But I think the guys know, when we talked already about it, this is a top team. We're going to have to be on our A game to be able to compete and be successful. And we need to get to work here this week to prepare for that. Well, Koutry, was she the best to lock in both those games? And we'll see you back here next week. Sounds good. Thank you. For Coach Dominic Dahls, I'm Sam Murray. And this has been the Dominic Dahl Show.
