“I don’t really concern myself too much with the shots,” said Donato. “We’ve won a lot of games and been outshot in those games, but a lot of it is that when you’re playing with the lead, you’re going to play a different way.”
And if the cost of a victory includes more work for senior net-minder Dov Grumet-Morris than his counterpart across the ice, then Donato will not be concerned.
Grumet-Morris’ NCAA-leading save percentage of .945 is reason for confidence.
As postseason hopes rest on the line, Donato is confident.
“Our guys are pretty focused, he said. “And they know...[that] we have our fate in our own hands.”
