Following the game, Sturm expressed that it is a mindset going in to it.
«For me, it's a mindset going in," a frustrated Sturm stated following the Bruins' loss against the Knights. "Do you want to play a 1-0 game or do you want to play that open game?

"It's a grinding game [and] it's not pretty," Sturm said. "We have to understand that, and a lot of guys didn't.»
