First is Justin Chwedoruk. The puck is under the right armpit of Quad City goaltender Kyle Jones.
The second is Lincoln Kaleigh Schrock who can see from behind the net the puck is already through Jones' legs and over the line.
It's 2-1 Komets after one. Komets gave up a 2-on-1 for a goal in the first 30 seconds but have looked very good after that.
Maybe it's because I've had one day off since Feb. 20, I'm burned out and the weather is gorgeous, but I can think of quite a few things I'd rather do than go to tonight's game. Thank goodness it doesn't start until 8 p.m.
According to some folks at the coliseum I talked to, Friday's game is expected to have a very big crowd.
The Komets' road warriors got the job done again.
The Komets won at Port Huron 4-3 on Wednesday night to pull three points ahead of the IceHawks for second place in the International Hockey League. This was Fort Wayne's last regular-season trip to Port Huron this season.
Nick Boucher made 30 saves in goal for the Komets to improve his three-year Fort Wayne record during games at Port Huron to 12-2-0 with a goals against average under 2.00. Leo Thomas also scored two goals to push his road total for the season to 18, compared to nine at home.
Homestead defeated Carroll by a 5-2 score in front of an estimated crowd of 1214 at the CanLan Ice facility.
With the NCAA tournament coming soon to Fort Wayne, and with few if any comments put up on Blake's blog entries about high school hockey, I was curious, Do folks think Fort Wayne is a good hockey town, is it a good Komets town, or for that matter is it just a good Komets town when the Komets dominate?
