Wanted to share a few comments Coach Martinson made after the game last night:
- Goalie play for both teams was excellent. Silverthorn was outstanding.
- Coach singled out Brian McMillin for his excellent work on the penalty kill and said he deserves to be playing every game
- The practice on Friday allowed the team to work on and emphasize some system issues that had not been worked on while on the road. This system practice helped reduce the number of odd man rushes.
- Coach talked about the lack of fighting in the last few games and the fact that teams we have played thus far are reluctant to fight Kip Brennan.
Other Thoughts:
- Brett Skinner continued his streak with another assist and leads the team in points and is now 3rd in the CHL
- Congrats to Nino Musitelli on getting his first goal of the season
- The Americans honored the over 250 veterans from WW II, Korea, & Vietnam who live in Heritage Ranch at last nights game.
- The team now hits the road for three straight games (Wednesday, Friday & Saturday) against the Arizona Sundogs. The Sundogs are 5-0-1 at home and are playing much better than they were when we played them in Allen last month. Combine this with the typical intensity of playing the same team three times in four nights and it shapes up to be quite a series.
