Major League SuccessPucks are being shot, checks are being thrown and beer is flowing. The first day of MLRH Pro at Gardens Ice Arena couldn't have gone better. After the Euro Cup Rec Division finished the Michigan Thunder and the Dynamo Pardubice took to the floor and the 200+ people in the stands got their money's worth tonight. Richard Graham provided color commentary for the b2 watchers at home and Laura Weintraub provided the post game interviews at the end of the arena. For the first time since 1999 an arena had a true PRO feeling to it again. All three games had great hard hitting end to end action with many of the fans wooing and ahing at great saves, goals and checks. After today Richard Walsh of the Leicester Dragons is in the lead for points with five goals and two assists. The stand out goaltending after today’s action is Gabe Bolem of the Michigan Thunder who faced 45 shots while saving 39 for a 0.867 save percentage.
Tomorrow’s game should be some of the greatest of the Tournament as the Michigan Thunder and the Chicago Roller Snakes face each other at 9:30 PM. Also, the Washington Power are looking to gain revenge off a 10-1 rout by the hands of the Leicester Dragons, the home town Washington Power play the Chicago Roller Snakes at 3:00pm.
Other games include the Boston Storm versus the Michigan Thunder at 2:00 PM, the Boston Storm versus the Leicester Dragons at 7:30 PM and the Dynamo Pardubice versus the Washington Power at 8:30 PM.
