It's tough enough to come back from one game down in a best of three series
(especially at home).  But after a heartbreaker like Friday night (aka
Saturday morning),  it's going to take superhuman mental and physical
stamina to come back from this loss.

Perhaps, if the fans make enough noise and the Union players realize that
this will be their last chance to advance to the ECAC final four at home (at
least, close to home),  maybe they can summon up enough of whatever it takes
to come back.

They need to concentrate on tonight since tonight is do or die.  If they can
come back tonight, the lift might be enough to swing momentum back in their
favor tomorrow night.
That's assuming any of the players can even skate, let alone play, a third
game.
