Second to None... The Nailers power play is second best in the ECHL. They have scored multiple power-play goals in five of their six games. They have 13 goals in 49 opportunities (26.53%) and are behind only Victoria who has one more goal in the same amount of chances but has played one more game than Wheeling.

Ask Questions Later...Paul Bissonnette, Ned Havern and Adam Henrich have combined to take 78 of the team's 207 shots (38%). They have also accounted for 10 of the team's 22 goals (46%).
