INDY WILL FINISH WEEKEND AGAINST K-WINGS

INDIANAPOLIS- The Indy Fuel will finish their weekend with a Sunday matinee game against the Kalamazoo Wings in Michigan. Coming off of their first three game losing streak, the Fuel are looking to break that today.

LAST TIME OUT

The last time these two teams met was January 14 at Indiana Farmers Coliseum where the Fuel defeated the K-Wings 3-2. Andrew Bellant scored the Fuel’s game-winning shorthanded goal during that match after missing a penalty shot opportunity.

KUZ’ CLUES

Since joining the Fuel, defenseman Shane Kuzmeski has tallied 21 points in 31 games including two assists during last night’s battle with Jacksonville. He has not recorded that many points in one season since his 2015-16 season playing in juniors. He has found a consistent, offensive place on the Fuel’s blue line that has contributed to their success.

PENALTY KILLERS

The Fuel head into this game with a 81.6% penalty kill success rate which is a significant increase from the first half of the season where Indy struggled on both ends of their special teams. While this is a road game, it should also be noted that the Fuel are on a 54 penalty kill streak at home.
