"It's kind of something we're trying to put in our game in the shift length and kind of rolling everybody over," said Henrique. "I think you've kind of seen it in the first two [games] now. Quicker shifts kind of allows everybody to be at a higher pace. It allowed us in that game at times to take over and continue the pressure, and maybe created a few more chances for us. That's something that's going to be big for us the whole season. It's something we'll always go back to, roll everybody over. If we're getting all four lines involved, you can just play at a higher pace and eventually throughout the game it wears on the other team."
After the cheers came a hearty dose of tears. During a stoppage of play in the first period, Sergeant Robert Munoz of the U.S. Army surprised his wife, Megan, their children Brayen and Conner, and his father and stepmother. The moment was captured on the scoreboard and was met with a huge ovation. A diehard Ducks fan, Sergeant Munoz returned home after 11 months overseas and wanted to reunite with his family at the game tonight.
