Komets named IHL Club of the Year

By Blake Sebring — Thu, 04/10/2008 - 9:31am — Tailing the Komets

I hope IHL President Paul Pickard has a big trunk because he may have to make two trips to Fort Wayne on Sunday to bring all the hardware.

That was interesting

The first time all year the Komets had won in overtime. They are 6-2 in shootous, but were 0-5 this season 4-on-4.

It also looks like the Fury have the inside track on clinching fourth place and playing the Komets in the first round of the playoffs. The Fury are two points up on Kalamazoo and both teams have two games left. Muskegon has a home and home with Bloomington and Kalamazoo has a home and home with Port Huron. Muskegon also owns the tiebreaker. Looks like Chad Alban got his legs back against Kalamazoo on Wednesday night with 38 saves for Flint.

No big surprise

Komets coach Al Sims said today he's going to continue rotating goaltenders in the playoffs.

``Right now there's no need to change,'' Sims said. ``We'll just go with it the same way we've been playing.''

Since the Komets started alternating between Kevin Reiter and Nick Boucher on Jan. 30, they have gone 26-1-3. The way he has handled his goaltenders is one of the major reasons why Sims is likely to be named IHL coach of the year on Wednesday.
