Game Day

Tonight the Ams take on a struggling Lethbridge Hurricanes team, a night after they dropped a 6-0 tilt to the Spokane Chiefs. Everyone knows by now that the Chiefs can score a heck-uva-lot in a GD-hurry...but so can the Ams.

Dont know much about this Lethbridge team, other than they are struggling this year. This is the only meeting between the teams in the regular season. Lethbridge goalie Brandon Anderson is #24 of 28 on the top goalie list with a 3.62 GAA. The Hurricanes dont have a scorer in the top 20...or 40.....or 60...their top scorer is Cam Braes at #72 with a points total of 31.

Americans are going to have to come back from a frustrating night in Everett where 15 infractions were taken including a double minor called on Drew Owsley for spearing. frustrated much? unsure. I stopped listening to the game after Schmidts goal. By the way thats Schmidts second goal in as many nights.

Shinnimin also added the other goal for his fourth in three games.
