Because the bus blew a tire on the way home, the Komets were stuck for about four hours at around Anderson on the way home last night. Most of the players didn't get to bed until about 9:30 a.m. They all look about half-sick from lack of sleep and too many games in too few days.
If what I heard is true, the Komets are sitting veteran defenseman Guy Dupuis tonight. Dupuis was the only Komet to play in every game so far this season, and had played every game over the last four seasons.

The Komets also released defenseman Danko Mironovic. He'll be on CHL waivers for 24 hours.
He's been loaned to the Komets through Elmira of the ECHL from Chicago of the AHL. He cannot get enough games in to play in the ECHL playoffs, but he can get in the three games necessary to play in the CHL playoffs. He has to play a certain amount of games in the AHL playoffs in order to be sent down to the ECHL at this time of the year, and he's only played one game up there. It's unli
He played 75 games last year with Muskegon, scoring 14 goals and 47 points. He had six points this year in 61 games with Gwinnett, Chicago and Elmira.

I'm not sure there is anyone right now, and if I was the coach that would scare me to death.
