The Detroit Juggernaut
Honestly, it's almost getting boring. The Detroit Falcons have issued another shellacking, limiting a helpless Halifax team to just 15 shots, en route to their twelvth win in just fifteen games. Once again, the Falcons' stars shine brightly - Espen Knutsen Jr. notched his 17th and 18th assists of the season, and Emiko Spector, albeit probably bored at times, closed the door for the shutout. A good showing by Detroit's third line and third pairing saw Skao Anazibf and Marc Palicka Jr. rack up 2 points each in the win, demonstrating that even with their impressive offensive tools on the first line, the Falcons can kill you with secondary scoring should you give them the chance. Can anyone truly stop them..?
