FISHERS- The Fuel will head to Cincinnati to take on the Cyclones in a rare Thursday night game. They will look to even the score against the Cyclones after losing to them 5-4 in overtime last week.
LAST TIME OUT
The last time these two teams played was last Saturday when the Cyclones came to Indy and took home a 5-4 overtime win. Kevin Lombardi had two goals, including the late-game go-ahead goal for the Fuel, however the Cyclones came back even later to tie it up again. Sahil Panwar also had one goal on six shots to help the Fuel in that game.
ON THE ROAD AGAIN
After three straight home games to start the season and a preseason game at home, the Fuel will hit the road for the first time. While it is one of the shorter bus rides of the season for Indy, the Cyclones home venue is an intimidating one. The Fuel will look to pull motivation from their traveling fans and the urge to win their first game of the season.
SPECIAL TEAMS, SPECIAL PLAYERS
Through three games, the Fuel have allowed five power play goals and two shorthanded goals and a total of thirteen goals. Special teams have clearly played a big role in their games thus far. Capitalizing on the power play and staying out of the box will be important for Indy as they look to minimize the amount of goals allowed.
