"I think everyone stood out and said -- we are here, and w e're going to learn and w e're going to knock on your door. "The attitude on the bench was really. I think, the standout. It d id n 't m atter what the score was -- we w ere constantly com ing back, com ing back. T hat's good. T h at's w hat stood out." As expected, he thought the team 's youth w as apparent, som ething he had talked about going into the season open er. "They (Cam bridge) are an older team. They play with more confidence because they've been there before and th ey 're ju st a little bit quicker in their decision m aking process and you can see that. "A nd w e have to take our tim e to do that. T he only way you can go through this is by playing and getting that criti cal experience. You ju st can't say. okay, now I'm going to be quicker and m ake better decisions.
