Where we are Week of Mar. 4 – Mar. 10 GP W L Standing in Division 3 2 1 5th I mentioned in our preview last week just how important it was for the Phantoms to extract points out of this week, particularly in their Wednesday game in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, and it looks like they were…
The Lehigh Valley Phantoms played a home-and-home series with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins last Friday and Saturday night, picking up three out of a possible four standings points. In the two games, Phantoms defenseman Mark Friedman had an assist, took four minor penalties in total — two of which were offsetting minors — and had a…
Where we are Week of Mar. 11 – Mar. 17 GP W L Standing in Division 3 1 2 6th Another Wednesday game against Wilkes-Barre/Scranton kicked off the week, two weeks ago the Phantoms came into their arena and controlled play, but the same couldn’t be said of the rematch. The Phantoms came out a…
The Phantoms 2018-19 season isn’t quite over yet. They will close out it over three more games, including the finale this Saturday at home against Hartford. Their playoff hopes hang on a thread and with their magic number at 13 currently, it is doubtful that it comes to pass. With that, we can start talking…
Where we are Weeks of Mar. 24 – Apr. 3 GP W L Standing in Division 5 2 3 6th We’re back! The schedule’s really packed through these last couple of weeks of the season, but you knew that already. That hasn’t left us a whole lot of time for talking, so now we’re playing…
Where we are The back to back last weekend started off on Friday in Wilkes-Barre, and, spoiler alert, it was the Nicolas Aube-Kubel show. The Penguins picked up the first goal of the evening, but the Phantoms responded well and kept their energy up and worked to carry some momentum into the second period. And…
And we’re back! We’ve talked about goalies and we’re making our way outwards, so to speak. Today we’ll be starting our talks on the Phantoms’ defensemen. For the sake of ease, we’re going to be breaking them up into two groups, so the second will be coming at you next week. And how will we…
It’s that time of year again, folks! The Phantoms’ season is over and the dust has started to settle, which means it’s time to dig into the performances and give out some grades. Because who doesn’t love grades, right? We’re going to be breaking these up by position, and we’re also limiting our grade distribution…
Where we are Week of Apr. 10 – Apr. 14 GP W L Standing in Division 2 2 0 5th The Phantoms started their final weekend of the season against who else but Providence, the team looking to clinch that last playoff spot in the Atlantic. They may have ultimately done just that, but the…
Where we are Week of Apr. 4 – Apr. 9 GP W L Standing in Division 3 3 0 5th We’ve got a lighter group than we did last week, with only three games to talk about instead of five. The Phantoms kicked off this stretch with their last of their approximately four thousand meetings…
