Week 1 Primer

Game #1: Albany at Adirondack

Location: Glens Falls Civic Center, Glens Falls, NY.

Time: 7:00 PM.

Season Series: First meeting of 2.  Future matchup: December 7th at Albany.

Standings:

Adirondack: 0-1-0, 0 points, 5th place in North Division

Albany: 0-0-0, 0 points,  tied for 1st in Northeast Division

Flames Leading Scorers/Goaltending:

2 skaters tied with 1 point (Ken Agostino 1 goal; Ben Hanowski 1 assist)

Joni Ortio, 0-1-0, 6.23 GAA; Brad Thiessen, 0-0-0, 0.00 GAA

Notes:

-This marks Adirondack’s home opener, their first as the Flames (last 5 seasons as the Phantoms).

-If you were hoping for a possible matchup of former River Rat Trevor Gillies vs. Cam Janssen, sorry to disappoint you.  He will have to sit out tonight due to, well, being Trevor Gillies.

-One other local tie of note: former Union College forward Josh Jooris is a member of the Flames, in his second year pro.

-With the move from Abbotsford keeping Adirondack in the Western Conference, this marks Albany’s only visit to the North Country, despite being its closest opponent on the schedule.
