With a big game tonight as the 2nd overall flames come into atlanta with the fewest goal against in the entire brhl2 with only 1.9 Ga/G. Flames are scoring at a fairly slow average though with the 4th worst goals per game in the BRHL2 at 2.6 goals per game. The team is middle pack in team defense allowing 28.7 shots per games and only getting 27.3 shots per game. This teams early season success rest on one individual and that is the league MVP at this point in Kari Lehtonen, who with his unreal stats, going 7-1-1 in his nine starts with a 1.65 GAA and 941 save %. He would hands down win the MVP award so far this BRHL2 season.
They will be playing the Atlanta Thrashers who after a slow start have gone 4-0-1 in their last five games.
The thrasher currently sit 7th in the BRHL2 standings, with the 2nd most goals per game with 4.3 goals per game and the team. the team has taken 30.7 shots per game which is 2nd in the BRHL2. The teams defense is also giving up the 2nd fewest shots per game at 25.4 shots per game.
The battle tonight should be heated up with the news of the call-up of Colton ORR who is hoping the flames match it with the callup of boogaard or will they be scared?
ahem, the 2nd place Blues would like to give the 7th place thrashers a friendly reminder that it is they that occupy the 2nd overall spot, not the flames
