"Obviously winning in the fashion that we did was really exciting and fun. You know I think we are feeling really good and we are really excited for the future here playing Minnesota, hopefully playing for a championship on Sunday. Going to the NCAA tournament and trying to do great things so there is a lot of exciting hockey for us," said head coach Maura Crowell
