FILLING THE NET The Monarchs enter tonight's game with the second-most goals scored in the Eastern Conference with 28, trailing only the Atlanta Gladiators. The 4.00 goals/game the Monarchs currently post is tied for the third-best average in the ECHL.
NOTHING ON GOAL? The Monarchs and Thunder have both been stingy this year allowing shots on net, as both teams rank in the top-6 across the league in that category. The Thunder enter the game allowing the fewest shots/game in the ECHL, surrendering an average of 18.83 shots a game. The Monarchs sit in sixth-place, allowing an average of 29 pucks on net.
STREAKING Joey Diamond is riding a three-game goal streak entering tonight's North Division matchup, tied for the longest current streak in the ECHL. Since entering the lineup Oct. 21, Diamond has recorded six points on three goals and three assists.
