The Chicago Phoenix have continued to roll through the season and have eclipsed the 100 point plateau. While they likely will not be winning the North American conference, as they have in the past, they will be going into the playoffs playing very well. Of note is Julian Nousiainen who has passed the 100 point mark for the second time in his career, having an incredible 118 points with five games still remaining. Matty Socks, lifetime member of the Chicago Phoenix, has also hit 100 points for the first time in their career with an extremely impressive 29 goals and 71 assists from the backend. Add to that 161 hits and 149 shot blocks and there is definitely a possibility for some post-season hardware coming their way. While they have not been on the same kind of heater that saw them win 26 games straight at one point this season there is no doubt what the Chicago Phoenix have done this season has been very special and while they will be losing a large portion of their roster to retirement this offseason they can be proud of what they have done.

Us 100%. We have five players confirmed retiring this year.

The Chicago Phoenix’s win streak finally came to an end after 26 games when the New York Americans took them down 4-3 in a game over the weekend. While this came as a shock to some it was an inevitability that the streak would at some point come to an end. With that being said since the loss the Chicago Phoenix have continued their torrid pace and continue to lead the league by five points over the Vancouver Wolves. What may be more impressive is the fact that the Phoenix goal differential is closing in on a monstrous 100, sitting at 96 currently. Julian Nousiainen, who is currently playing his last season, has set the league on fire and has 97 points in just 52 games which already almost reaching his career high in points which he set last season with 103. Defenseman Matty Socks is also having an incredible final season with 80 points in 52 games good for second spot on the squad. While the team is in the twilight of its current core they are doing their very best to make one final run and send these players out on top. While there is still plenty of season remaining and the playoffs are always a slog there is no doubt that the Phoenix are putting themselves in a great position to succeed.

Well RIP. 27 game point streak now I guess.

It has been an absolute pleasure having you backstop the Phoenix since day one. Now let's go out on top.

Uh

As the current GM of Austin Towbaker this article has my mind in a pretzel.

Well this is going well right now

The Chicago Phoenix, ever since losing the first four games of the season, have decided they have something to prove and have been among the hottest teams in the league. Since starting the season 0-4-0 the Phoenix have managed to go 27-2-3 and are second in the North American conference as well as second in the entirety of the VHL. How are they doing this you ask? Is it a dominant defense? High scoring offense? Stout goaltending? It is actually all of the above. They are currently second in the league in goals for with 155. They are first in goals against with only 91 which is a crazy number because no other team has fewer than 103 on the season. They are currently being led on the score sheet by the duo of Lee Xin and Julian Nousiainen and on the back end by veterans Matty Socks and Kasper Kankkunen. In net Chicago career man Jean Pierre Camus is leading the league’s starters in save percentage, goals against average and shutouts. What has this overall team play led to? The Chicago Phoenix are currently on a 15 game winning streak and are closing the gap on the conference leading Vancouver Wolves.

Yes.
