WHAT: ECHL REGULAR SEASON GAME

WHERE: SNHU Arena - Manchester, NH
TONIGHT'S MATCHUP: Tonight is the sixth meeting of the season between Adirondack and Manchester and completes the three-game series between the two teams this week. Adirondack and Manchester square off as the top two sides in the North Division, with the Thunder leading the Monarchs by a single point and a game in hand. The two teams will not meet again until November 29 in Glens Falls.
FANTASTIC FIVE: Adirondack got goals last night from five different players for the first time this season (Mikkel Aagaard, Mathieu Brodeur, Matt Bailey, Phil Lane and Ty Loney), en route to a 5-3 win over the Monarchs at SNHU Arena. The Thunder hit the five-goal plateau for the third time this season, with all three games resulting in a win for Adirondack.
MAGIC MATT: Forward Matt Bailey is now riding a four-game scoring streak, with points in each of his four games with the Thunder. The 6-1 center scored the first goal of his Thunder career in last night's win as he extended his scoring streak with a two-point effort (1-1-2). The Winnipeg, MAN native is currently in his first career ECHL action, after he appeared in 118 games of the last three seasons in the AHL.
WE GOT THAT POWER: Adirondack's power-play unit remained hot away from home as they converted twice last night with the man advantage. Last night's output marked the second straight away games that the Thunder have scored multiple power-play goals. Adirondack is converting at a 44.4% clip away from Glens Falls this season.
FIRSTS FOR FEDO: Thunder forward Alexander Fedoseyev made his ECHL and Thunder debut in last night's victory, after he sat out the beginning of the season awaiting immigration. The Russian-born winger found his way onto the scoresheet in his first taste of ECHL action, with the secondary assist on Ty Loney's second period tally. The 25-year old forward has appeared in 130 games in the KHL and VHL in Russia throughout his professional career.
MULTI-POINT MANIA: The Adirondack Thunder were led offensively with four players picking up a goal and an assist last evening (Brodeur, Bailey, Loney and Lane). Brodeur returned to the lineup for the first time since October 22 and collected Adirondack's fifth goal, coming on a 5-on-3 advantage. Lane and Loney each picked up multiple points for the second time this season, while Bailey's was the first of his ECHL career.
WILD, WILD, WEST: Following this afternoon's game, the Thunder hit the road early next week for a six-game Western Conference road trip. The Thunder will first visit Idaho for three games against the Steelheads, before they head to Utah for three versus the Grizzlies. The meetings with both team will be the first in Thunder franchise history against their respective opponents.
