Pat Nagle for the Komets and Jeff Lerg for the Walleye are starting in goal.
The Komets called up Eric Levine to back up Nagle, and on his way to get his physical yesterday, he got T-boned and totaled his car. Luckily, he didn't suffer a scratch on himself.
Matt Krug is playing today and Will Lacasse is the only Komets' scratch. James Martin is wearing an A to replace Matt Pistilli who got called up to Norfolk.
Be fascinating today to see what kind of defensive game the Komets try to play. Toledo is every bit as fast as Fort Wayne.

2-0 on a power-play goal by Anthony Luciani with Shawn Szydlowski sitting in the box for tripping behind the opposing net on a forecheck. Same play the Walleye ran twice to score on Friday. Gary Graham is already steaming because you know he pointed it out to the guys. He was ticked Friday night after the game because they had talked about it beforehand.
Shots are 11-6 Komets with 5:37 left in the first but Jeff Lerg has made four great saves so far.
Now it's 3-0 on a high wrist shot from Justin Mercier. This looks very similar to Firday's 6-2 whipeout. Condon and Ouellet just had a 2-on-1 and Condon missed the net wide left from 10 feet.
Shawn Szydlowski and Josh Holmstrom five for fighitng, or Szydlowski five for throwing and Holmstrom five for receiving.
Komets seize the momentum as Christian Ouellet scores on a wirst shot and then Eric Faille sets up Mitch Heard on the doorstep. 3-2 with 1:29 left in first. Shots are 14-9 FW. Condon just missed the net again on a on wide-open shot but hustled to get the puck back and set up Crowder for another goal! 3-3 with 58.6 left.
thank you Syd!!
