will only rise as the team gets deeper into the playoffs. “Of course, it helps to build confidence when you can score five or six goals in a game,” said Kosch, “but we don’t want to form bad habits or get sloppy just because we’re playing the second worst team in the league. We know this is not representative of the level of competition we will face as we get deeper into the playoffs.” The Castors’ head coach is concentrating on making sure his players are playing within the system and staying focused on the task at hand: “We’re just focused on what we’re building right now, taking things one game at a time and making sure our team is playing responsibly as a unit.
