Komets lost in Muskegon 6-4 despite two goals from P.C. Drouin and one each from Guy Dupuis and David Hukalo. Mathieu Curadeau had three assists. P.C. had four points.

The International Hockey League changed its rules on Wednesday to alter the way players are placed on injured reserve. Previously, a team could only place an unlimited number players on a 30-day injured reserve list, but now they have the option of using a 45-day and a 60-day list.

Did anybody get to try out the Sports Heritage kiosk in the coliseum lobby last night? What did you think of it?
Robbie Irons just told me that Boris Zinchenko passed away today. Though he never played a game, Boris was one of the great characters in the history of Komets hockey as the interpreter for the Komets' Russian players in the early 1990s. Whenever the media, or sometimes the coach, wanted to talk to one of the Russians, we would call Boris and he would meet us at the coliseum.
With about 2:40 left on the clock before the opening faceoff, you are going to absolutely love what the Komets have planned for the video board. It's pretty freaking cool.
