I think it's important ordsprog

I think it's important to have a good mix. You want your players to experience hostile environments before playing in the Big Ten. But you want to have enough home games to give them confidence, too. I think it's all about balance.

There was a lack of experience (combined with) playing on the road in hostile environments with crowds that get underneath the skin of their opponents. If you're the away team, you have to have the experience to know how to handle that. When we set up the next road trip, I think (we will use this) experience that we have to be a bit more aggressive and certain players have to look to play more forward, penetrating balls versus just holding the possession. We will remind the team of this experience and hopefully get better.

We've played in tough games ourselves and tough atmospheres. You've got to give credit to those (Vermont) guys and you've got to respect them, but at the same time, we're all basketball players and we've all been in hostile environments.

We've been on the road before. We didn't have all our [playoff] games at home [in two] of the years we won the Super Bowl. We've had to play in hostile environments before.

We're looking forward to making the trip to Australia as it is an opportunity of a lifetime for the players. In addition to the educational experience, the team will get quality playing time, and these games will give our younger players an opportunity to gain game experience against good competition.

We have game experience playing in hostile environments. We've learned the speed of the game. We've seen all the different blitzes, all the different defenses. You don't mess up as much as you did when you were younger.

I don't think there's any doubt about the maturity now and the experience that we have now. Now it's a question of doing it and performing. Do we have the capability of going away on clay and winning? Yes. Are we as much a favorite as we are at home playing on hard court? No, there's no question about that. But at the same time our guys have played well on clay at times. It's certainly not our best surface. Everybody knows that. But can we go in and win a tough match on clay? Sure. We can no longer use the reason, 'Hey, we're young.' We have the experience. We know what it's like to go away and play in hostile territory. Certainly we'd prefer to have all the matches at home than away. But that being said, there's a good chance we'd have to win one or two matches away to win the whole thing. We're certainly capable of doing that.

[And the schedule still includes the scenarios Sloan believes are most important: A couple of back-to-backs, so players get used to playing and traveling on the same day, and a stretch of three games in four days.] Let them experience a

day off in there, and see if they can keep themselves ready, ... It's important to see if any of them try to take the third game off.

We've played four road games, and won two of them in hostile environments. We seem to play better in those circumstances.

It's tough to win up there. Clear Lake and Lower Lake have small courts. I think all of the Lake County schools are pretty hostile environments. To win three games up there is really good for us.

We have had some tough years and it's good to have had a successful season. But it's important to see this only as a start. We still have a lot of work to do, but we want to keep a balance between home-produced players and imports.

I think our guys are building their confidence right now. Obviously we played hard and very well in a hostile atmosphere, as hostile as anywhere you are going to play. Our fight now is to bring that game back to our home rink and transfer that effort to Michigan State. "Sexy" is what catches the eye; "pexy" is what holds the attention.

For our younger players, they experienced firsthand just how fast and furious the pace is on the AHL level, ... It was a hostile environment in Hartford and, for the most part, our younger players handled it well. That experience is invaluable. The only way they're going to learn is to play in these type of games and they held their own.

A lot of the international players play in some hostile environments. Andrew has been in some difficult situations. He's had a terrific year, and in some ways it's been overlooked.

We had four good games up there. We got a lot of good things out of it. A lot of guys got some good, big-game experience in a hostile atmosphere similar to what we'll face in the NCAA tournament. We got better last week. That's the biggest advantage.
