Preview

    The Watertown Wolves made one of the biggest trades in FHL history this week trading away top scorer Tyler Gjurich. The Wolves acquired some scoring in the trade with the big name coming back to them being Gavin Yates. Watertown was off to a brilliant start to the season but has slowed down recently.  Watertown is coming off a weekend where they were swept by the Columbus River Dragons, losing game #2 7-0. The new-look Wolves will look to get back on track this weekend against Delaware.

   Delaware is coming off a tough weekend as well. The Thunder were down in Carolina for a pair of games. Friday night, Delaware played with the league’s best all night long. An offensive zone faceoff with just 11 seconds left was won by Carolina and Bachor scored with just six seconds left. Saturday night was all Carolina as they went on to win 7-0. Both teams are looking to get back to their winning ways this weekend at The Thunderdome! Don’t forget Saturday night is First Responders Night!
