Phantoms @ Albany River Rats, 10/25/08 game preview

T-minus 3 hours 55 minutes until game time! Here is the preview from the Phantoms site.

Reading the recap of last year's playoff series with the River Rats reminds me of why I'm happy that goalie Michael Leighton is in the NHL now. :) Good grief, was it hard to get a puck past that guy! Well, that plus he strikes me as Good People after his brief stint in Philly, and I think he's paid his dues in this league and has earned the nod from an NHL club.

Meanwhile, Scotty Munroe, the goalie whom I presume will be in net for the Phantoms today, is likely to be a player that the River Rats fans don't want to see. As hard of a time as we had scoring on Albany's goalie, they had an even harder time scoring on ours. So here's hoping that the sight of the Albany arena, where we won the longest game in AHL history and put 101 SOG on net into the bargain, will get Scott and the entire rest of the Phantoms team going today. We need a win.
