QUICK BITS

ON THE ROAD AGAIN

Friday night is Greenville's 11th trip away from the friendly confines of Bon Secours Wellness Arena. While the Swamp Rabbits' 9-3 record on home ice is an impressive standing, the team's road record has been turning heads across the ECHL. Since their first loss of the season on November 1 in a road game in Atlanta, the Swamp Rabbits have rattled off wins in each of their last eight away games, setting a new franchise record for consecutive road victories in the process. Of the eight straight wins, seven of them came in consecutive game days from November 14 through November 25.

KECHS KEEPS GOING

Wednesday's bounce back win over Atlanta saw forward Josh McKechney extend his point streak to four straight games with an assist on Brannon McManus' power-play goal in the third period. Over his last four games, McKechney has posted a goal and four assists in what is his longest point streak of the season.

THAT'S SOME GOOD 'ROAD KILL'

Throughout Greenville's 9-1 road start, plenty of different factors have played a part in the success, but one stat has pulled the Swamp Rabbits in front of the league. Away from home, the Rabbits boast the league's best penalty-kill, posting a staggering 93.1% efficiency. While Greenville is the third-least penalized team in the ECHL, they have allowed just two goals on 29 times shorthanded when on the road.

BRANNON BACK ON TRACK

After a stretch of nine points over a seven-game stretch for Brannon McManus came to an end last Wednesday, the forwards saw a stretch of three games without a point. McManus' fortune changed on Wednesday against Atlanta, as the forward scored a power-play goal, seventh point against the Gladiators this season, to get back onto the score sheet. The goal, his fourth of the season, added to his 13 points to put the winger into second on the team in scoring.
