Happy New Year for Icemen

Life Imitates Bart

And for the Crimson, maybe that was the most important thing: fun.

Even with all the penalties (it was BC, after all), the Crimson showed that work ethic brings results. And success usually lifts the spirit.

"In the first period, everyone was a little rusty," Cohagan said. "Sometimes you lose a step over the break. But we kept working hard. It was exactly what we needed."

One resolution down, many more to go. But maybe this drive for success doesn't have to be about sacrifice at all.

"As long as we keep working, we'll be all set," Tomassoni said. "This team still hasn't played its best hockey. I think that's very encouraging."
