FORT WAYNE- The Indy Fuel hit the road for the first time this week. They are headed to Fort Wayne for Friday Night Hockey in the Jungle. Friday is the first of two against each other in back-to-back nights.
SPECIAL TEAMS
The Fuel have a 33.3% power play success rate against the Komets this season, going 4 for 12 in their five meetings. Sahil Panwar netted the last power play goal for the Fuel against the Komets, which was also the game winner on January 14 when the Fuel visited Fort Wayne. On the flip side, the Fuel are 19 for 23 on the penalty kill with an 82.6% success rate. While the last game against each other had minimal penalties, going back-to-back this weekend may stir up some penalty box time.
SQUASH HOME ADVANTAGE
Despite their overall winning streak snapping last weekend, the Fuel are still on a three-game road win streak. The Komets were also shaken up in their last home game, losing 5-0 to the Bloomington Bison. The Fuel are 2-0 in the Jungle this season and look to continue that streak Friday.
