Hello Phantoms

The ECHL finally had their first goalie fight of the season on Saturday with Reading and Evansville.  One day later and the AHL raises the bar again with their 3rd of the season.

The Phantoms will generally not be confused with a great team however they really enjoy the rough stuff and have now for quite some time.  On Sunday they really lost their shit.







Clearly we are going to see some suspensions here.  As much as the style of hockey is changing you wouldn't necessarily know it if you watched the AHL.  For fun I looked at how many teams do not have a player with at least 100 penalty minutes this season.  That number was 14.  The Phantoms have five guys over 100 and weren't even in the top three in fighting penalties this season.  That probably changed tonight.
