Al Sims said, "I'm not going to say much about it, but obviously, players on the Muskegon bench were told something. I don't know by who, but they went out there and obviously did what someone told them. They did not do that on their own.

"I think it's very tough for Brad and Stayz to stay where they are when your best players who aren't fighters are getting pummeled. I certainly would have loved for him to stay inthe penalty box, but he went out and got retribution for Shaf. I can't fault the guy for wanting to stand up for his teammates. It's a tough call."

"From where I was at, Muskegon sent their three guys out there that aren't their big players, their tough players against our guys and they jumped Chaulker and they jumped Shaf. Lawmaster had Shaf on the ground hitting him and there was nobody to break it up. I know what I did was wrong, but somebody has to step in to help there. That's unnecessary. It was unfortunate the way everything happened, and I'm sure there's going to be a suspension dealt out, but what do you do?"

This ruling from the league will be very interesting.

The Komets and Lumberjacks had a huge melee at the end of the first period Saturday night. First, there was a fight between the Komets' Lincoln Kaleigh Schrock and the Lumberjacks' John DiPace after an incident started when Muskegon's Tom Galvin slashed Brad MacMillan and MacMillan responded with a shove to the face. Both of them received roughing penalties, and MacMillan celebrated on his way to the penalty box as usual.

Komets have been out-shot 50-38 and out-scored

The Fort Wayne Komets played one of the strangest games in recent memory on Friday night.

All nine goals were scored on special teams as the PrairieThunder beat the Komets 5-4 in Bloomington.

“We could never get ahead of them in the game,” Komets coach Al Sims said. “We kept tying them and coming back. We had some good chances at the end to tie it but couldn't get one in.”
