Tailing the Komets

I'll be here tonight

Working on basketball preview stuff and listening to the game if anyone has any questions.

BTW, heard from Terry Pembroke the other day and he's doing very well. He's had some major health scares the last couple of years, but he's got a clean bill right now and is happy with that. He's still going to try to make it up to a game sometime this year.

He's pretty much the only Komet with a retired number who has moved away from Fort Wayne, but he sti

Since you're there and all, Blake, are you listening to the feed? Bob sounds like he's underwater...wonder if it's just me or if the feed is bad.

I haven't been able to get him up yet, Brandan, but it wouldn't surprise me. FedMed has been having horrible problems lately with its board ops. It's a very shabby operation right now with the way they run things. Ridiculously unprofessional.

Is Pointstreak acting funny for anyone else or is it just me? It's still listed as "pregame".

It's like the station doesn't care what the quality of the sound is because they haven't fixed it yet. They've known this has been a problem for a while, too.

Pointstreak seems to be working now. A lot of it depends on how many people a team has to work on it, so it's not a Pointstreak problem as much as a team problem. They determine the quality.

It's a whole lot better than it used to be. In the past you would update it one or two times a period and you had no idea what was going on. Sometimes there are problems when teams are trying to train new people on it, but most teams are very good at updating throughout the period now. Sometimes after games in Muskegon you'd have to wait 30-45 minutes for the final stats.

Milam grat setup from Chaulk. 2-0.

Maybe most of you have already noticed this, but here's something to look for as you watch the game. When the Komets are on their game, you'll see the two defensemen and one forward picking up the rush at the red line and then backing up to the blue line. At home, you'll often hear Chaulk yelling ``Stay up! Stay up!'' he wants all three players, especially on a penalty kill, to stay in a line along the blue line so the opponents are forced to dump the puck in rather than carry it in. Then Nick hopefully stops the puck behind the goal, the defensemen beat everyone to the puck and they blast it out. Ks have been doing a better job of this of late, but it's really, really hard to have the confidence to stay up on that blue line. When it works, it's very hard to come into the zone against.

Got a really neat story about Milam's slap shot coming hopefully next Tuesday. It's pretty amazing.

The line of Schrock, Mele and Rizk scored. Thats great. The 3rd line needs to do its part in scoring as well as the top 2 lines. So far so good. Hope I didn't put the whammy on the good start.

Dominate period by the K's, but Dayton does not look like a very good club. Their effort was horrible that period

I agree, sgriffith. Dayton's looking bad.
