 Welcome back to the Dominic Doll Show presented by Buffalo Wild Wings. I'm Sam Murray. Join now with Stephens and men's ice hockey head coach, Dominic Dolls. And Coach, split two games last week, fall to nine, ranked Utica late there. And then get that overtime victory against Nazareth. Mike Davis, finding the back of the net again for you. How important is that going to be for you down the stretch? That's, I think it's huge. I mean, he's an elite player at this level. And for us to be successful, he needs to be elite. And I mean, he's had a lot of opportunities over the past few weeks and hasn't been able to finish. But I think it's just from a confidence standpoint at this point in the year to get four goals over the course of the weekend for him, I think is big. Moving forward. And then how important is it for your team to face adversity like they did this past weekend? You have the lead against the ninth-ranked team in the country. And then hanging with them late, they score an empty net or late. And then especially that overtime game winning in that overtime. I mean, I think we saw an example of it both ways. I think with the Utica game, to be honest, I think we shot ourselves in the foot. I mean, I think it's an excusable to let up the two shorthanded goals. Don't help. And then even their fifth goal, we kind of put in our own net. So I just think we help them when we, if we're going to compete against the best teams at the level, we can't help them. We've got to make sure that we're taking care of what we need to take care of. And then I think in the second game with NAS, Christian Ripley got injured halfway through the first period. And we lost him. And I thought that changed just kind of the scope of the game. I thought NAS got a little life after that. And I think we just, we got tired. I think we were tired from the night before and wore us down and kind of took over the play. And I think really controlled the second half of the game. But I think in terms of handling the adversity to be able to still come away with the win, I think is a big thing. End of the regular season on Friday, traveling to Newman. Kind of control your own destiny here. If you get to win, you get the first round by. Talk about how important of a game this is. It's huge. I mean, we, three goals from the start of the year, win the Mac, get a buy, win the UCHC tournament. So we put ourselves in a position to control our destiny with the Mac and win a game. Now we put ourselves in a position to control our destiny and earn the buy. So let's go to Newman and win. All right, coach. Well, we wish you the best of luck. And we'll see you back here next week. For Coach Dominic Dahls, I'm Sam Murray. And this has been the Dominic Dahl Show.
