FUEL FACE KOMETS IN FORT WAYNE ON SUNDAY

INDIANAPOLIS- The Fuel will finish their weekend in Fort Wayne against the Komets on Sunday afternoon, in hopes to gain some momentum and keep their second place spot in the Central division standings.

LAST TIME OUT

The last time these two teams met was last Sunday when the Fuel visited Fort Wayne and fell to them 3-2 despite outshooting them 42-26. Colin Bilek and Seamus Malone were the Fuel’s goalscorers while Bryan Lemos had an assist on each goal. Fort Wayne scored two power play goals so special teams will remain important. 

STANDINGS COUNTER

The Fuel currently sit in second place in the Central division with 66 points, just two points ahead of the Wheeling Nailers and three points ahead of Fort Wayne. The Kalamazoo Wings are not too far behind with 61 points as well. The playoff race is still incredibly tight between these four teams and every divisional game makes a huge difference. 

BUZZING BILEK

Colin Bilek has been on a tear with the Fuel lately. He leads the team in power play goals with nine and has seven points in their last six games. He comes into this game on a two-game goal streak and leads the team in scoring against the Komets.
