Game Preview:
In the Pro division, both the Southside Snipers and St. Louis Cobras are coming off winless weekends. The Cobras, after a hot start which included a mauling of the River City Whalers, were snake bit last weekend against the stifling Midwest Tornados who held the Cobras to only one goal in two games. Look for Cobras offense to pick it up against the Snipers. With talent including “Johnny Mac”, Jeff Hill, Brandon Marchand, and other explosive offensive weapons, it will be difficult to keep the Cobras off the scoreboard. On the other side of the rink, the Snipers got off to a slow start against the River City Whalers who avenged last year’s playoff elimination at the hands of the Snipers. Although the Snipers lost both games by only one goal, the normal Sniper defensive shutdown showed some cracks that will have to improve this weekend.
Who is hot?
St. Louis Cobras: Jeff Hill (3g 2a) leads the Cobras in offensive production
Southside Snipers: Jeremy Scott (1g) with increased playing time this year will be an impact player with the Snipers.
In Minor Pro, the undefeated Snipers take on a Cobras team heating up after finding the net five times against the Midwest Tornados in the second game this past weekend. Damion Matteson, returning from injury, recording a hat-trick in his first game of the season. The Snipers AAA team lost a close overtime game against the Whalers and will be looking to brothers Eric and Kyle Middendorf to lead them past the Cobras who have numerous talented offensive weapons including their very own set of brothers: Josh and Jeremy Bruce.
