Generals Weekly Report

December 14, 2009 - International Hockey League 2 (IHL 2) - Flint Generals News Release


The Flint Generals troubles returned this past weekend with a two game road skid. The team could not ask for more from netminder Rob Nolan who let in 4 total goals despite countless scoring chances by Bloomington and Quad City. Both games lacked the intensity that had been shown the two previous weeks until it was too late. Friday they dropped a 3-1 decision to the PrairieThunder followed by a 2-1 loss to the Mallards on Sunday evening.

THE WEEK AHEAD:

The team looks to get back on the right track with a busy week ten, playing four games in six days, including three in three nights. The four game road venture wraps up Tuesday in Port Huron for game one of a home and home with the IceHawks. The Gens have struggled against their I-69 rival this season as well as on the road; a win Tuesday will be a challenge but is within reach if they play like they did in weeks seven and eight.

Friday, Dec. 18th marks the return of the Generals to Perani as they welcome Port Huron for game two of this week's two game series, and with their last two wins coming on home ice, the return is welcomed. The Generals will be hosting the second "Pre-Holiday Shopping Night" with new and returning vendors. This Friday is also the Toys for Tots drive, so bring a toy for donation and some money to finish your holiday shopping, and come enjoy a great night of Generals hockey.

The Gens head to Dayton to take on the Gems Saturday where they look to pick up where they left off. Despite evenly played games, the Gems had the upper hand in the season series until the Generals last trip down to Dayton when Flint pulled out a much needed 3-1 victory.

Week ten wraps up at home Sunday, Dec. 20th with a visit from Quad City. After falling to the Mallards on the road this past weekend, the Gens look to take back the upper hand. The fan favorite Teddy Bear Toss returns for the 4:00 PM puck drop.
