Komets

Some notes

Komets General Manager David Franke said Tuesday the team is open to a possible trade to add more offense, but nothing is imminent. The preference would be for a defenseman who can move the puck. Franke said he believes there's plenty of talent on the roster to contend once everyone gets healthy.

Franke did say the Komets are considering bringing in college or junior players, and the team has been in contact with Turner Cup playoffs MVP Justin Hodgman who has 19 goals and 51 points in 67 games this year with Erie of the OHL. He's also minus-29. Yikes!

Komets win a wild one

The Fort Wayne Komets had to win the game twice on Sunday. First, Kalamazoo scored with no time on the clock, getting three shots on goal after a faceoff with five seconds left. The red light never came on because time was expired, but referee Scott Hoberg ruled the goal had gone in at 19:59. The Komets salvaged the two points when Mathieu Curadeau scored 3:33 into the overtime to give the Komets the 5-4 win.

Komets coach Al Sims said he never got a chance to protest the late goal.

Thank you

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to Komet Kuarters today. We had over 250 people show up and we were constantly busy. Thank you to everyone for taking part and for all the kind words. They mean a tremendous about. If you weren't able to make it today, we're going to have another one in the near future and I'll keep  you posted.

BTW, Mac did indeed have a shoulder injury last night, but he's planning on playing tomorrow in Kalamazoo.

 Bob and I talk about the books during the first intermission.

It will be interesting to see what the Komets' lineup is going to be tonight. Vince Tarantino is still out with an injury, meaning one more player is going to have to be a healthy scratch.

7:52: We just got the lineup and Brad MacMillan is the scratch.

Two things to remember

Don't forget the Bob Chase Frostbite Championships sled hockey tournament is going on at McMillen Park Ice Arena this weekend. If you've never seen something like this,  you'll be surprised at the speed and athleticism displayed. It's really something.

Also, Bob and I and Konstantin Shafranov, Colin Chaulk and Brad MacMillan will be doing a signing appearance at Komet Kuarters on Saturday starting at Noon. The players will be there by 1 p.m.
