I also believe the Generals have two Vets that can be difference makers in the series..Smolinski and Pascal. For them to beat Muskegon is huge accomplishment and they can give the K's all they can handle

I believe......If the Komets play the way they did the last 2 games, they will be fine...
its gonna be a great Finals...plus...Flint is an easier drive than Muskegon would of been...
GO KOMETS

Also, they better prepare for a much more physical series than Port Huron's. Flint just punished Muskegon from the beginning of the series. I could see a Rockford type of approach from Flint.

Flint scares me...They've been the best team in the I for alittle over a month now and their physical style will quickly wear down our vets. Should be a good one!

Blake how long does it take to convert from indoor football to a hockey set up? Looking at the schedule couldn't they play Saturday and Sunday with 7:30 face-off's for GM's 1 and 2? Or Play game 1 Saturday and Game 2 on Monday? Trying to keep a traditional format, but I guess one could argue the traditional format is 1-1-1-1-1-1-1

Flint will be a tough series. Nolan is a beast in the net. He is definitely one I'd love to see in the orange and black. I know it's been said on here time and again, but after all the issues Flint's guys have had to deal with throughout the season, both on and off the ice, it's good to see them having some success.
Mini marathon Saturday morning in Indianapolis, Game One Saturday night in the Jungle. Great day.

to beat flint our big forwards have to start going to the corners and hitting the oposition. their goaler is great but ours are still a step above ! skate hard, hit, forecheck and shooot after crashing the net. all equals champs!

So, I wonder if the Komets staff has to scramble around and do some "generals video shoots" for all the stuff they do on the scoreboard (like with the chicken hawk...etc)...
I can bet you they did not plan for them lol! (the PH ones were done during the college hockey weekend)

Wonder if Savage will be allowed into the MC Press Box???
Will the Generals Owners sit in the Press box with the Frankes?
I will take the Komets in.......5 games.
When can I buy my 4-peat shirt for next season?
Will this mean we will have to listen to another Kevin Bertram ICDC music video next season???
Will Flint get a few primetime (Weekend) nights for home games?
Will Jim Duhart come back to Flint to Drop the Ceremonial Puck in game 2 of the series so he can blow kisses into the crowd???
Too many questions.

Hey Hit -- aren't you supposed to be wearing a Flint Generals jersey by now ?? I clearly recall a statement by you regarding "if Flint made the playoffs" ... perhaps there should be something added since they beat Muskegon!!

HEY Puckbunny,
Can't you read? I just commented yesterday that the Flint jersey is on its way and is somewhere in the Phillipines. As soon as I get it, I will wear the darn thing. It would have been alot easier if that crappy franchise known as the Flint Wayne Generals actually sold team merchandise like Jerseys...there is a novel idea....I would have just bought one in the USA.....but I could only find one that comes from Manilla for Frankes-sake....
oh, my jersey just left Singapore and is somewhere over the Pacific Ocean.....Yippee.
My new Flint Jersey is touring the whole dang world before I can wear it....
