They were great. I've been at this for five years now, and that’s as thorough and as consistent an effort as I’ve seen from a team in five years. And then when you add the talent and the speed they have, it was like they were on steroids, and we just couldn’t match it. (BC) wanted to win every battle from the opening faceoff to the end. Their game plan was very visible: It started with winning battles, hunting pucks down with passion, and we couldn’t match it. They did it for 60 minutes. Our (defenders) were under assault for most of the game.
