THIS PAST WEEK:
About Saturday Night vs. Chicago: The Cyclones enjoyed a three-goal first period and never looked back as they rolled past the Express by a 4-1 final score in front of 5,755 at U.S. Bank Arena. Mike Pelech and David Leaderer both registered multi-point games while Chet Pickard turned aside 27 shots to earn the victory.
About Friday Night vs. Chicago: Pierre Luc-Faubert’s third period goal broke a 3-3 tie and turned out to be the game-winner as the Express defeated the Cincinnati Cyclones by a 4-3 final score in front of 3,893 at U.S. Bank Arena. Dan Eves extended his assist-streak to five games with a pair of helpers while Matt Sisca lit the lamp twice in the loss.
SHOTS FROM THE POINT:
Winter Visit to the Windy City: This week the Cyclones will look to continue their climb up the North Division ladder with four games in five days against the Chicago Express and Kalamazoo Wings. On Wednesday, the Clones and Express will reunite for the third straight game before making a quick trip to Wings Stadium on Friday night. Jarrod Skalde’s team will then return to the Sears Centre for Saturday and Sunday games against the Express.
Another Member of the 100 Point Club: With a two-point game on Friday night, Cyclones forward Dan Eves earned his 100th professional point. The 25-year old has earned 36 goals and 64 assists in 176 career games (25 of those points have come with Cincinnati). In 2011-12, Eves has 11 assists in 16 games and is on pace for a career high in “helpers.”
Tales from the North: The Clones are in the midst of their longest inter-division stretch of the season. Already having played back-to-back games against the Chicago Express, Cincinnati will have faced North Division opponents for seven consecutive games from January 20-February 1. As of today, the Cyclones have four games in hand on Toledo and five on both Chicago and Kalamazoo.
