Wicked wrister from @ANSELMINI10. What a way to score your first @TheAHL goal! pic.twitter.com/7BL5XQjDRa The goal came early on a two-on-one, with Lind taking a pass across the slot and wristing it past a sprawling goaltender. He finished the game with two shots on net and a plus-1 rating.— Utica Comets March 10, 2019While Lind crafts his game, the Comets have been cratering of late, losing four straight and finding themselves in a fight for the final playoff spot in the North Divison with 14 games left in the season.Quinn HughesYou wanted him. You got him.
have had some wonder about benefits of Quinn Hughes joining #Canucks as they free fall.

MacEwen, 22, didn’t register a point in the Comets’ two other losses, putting two shots on net in each game. He has 20 goals and 27 assists in 55 games this season. He’s also a minus-10 overall. #WHL REG/MJ: @MJWARRIORS Jett Woo adds another 3 assists to the pile and has as many helpers this season than total career points before it started . 3rd time this season with a trifecta, but first on home ice. 5-21-26, -2 at home; 7-27-34, +13 on road.
— Ryan Biech March 9, 2019Woo’s four-game points streak was snapped on Sunday, a 5-3 loss at the Blades. The division rivals are set to meet in the first round of the WHL playoffs, with only three games left in the Warriors’ regular season.
