Riga off to hot start

[Telkster 550]

The Reign have started the year 7-1-2, which is good enough for 3rd place in the league, and second in the EU. The underlying stats look even better for Riga, as they sit tied for first in goal differential, and already have 3 shutouts this year. With the usual suspects off to hot starts on the scoring chart in Miklavz, Sandstrom, Johnston etc, Telker has fallen into a bit of a slump. 6 points in 10 games wasn’t quite was he was hoping for, especially on a team with 40 goals in 10 games too. It feels a little Malmo esc from his last season, where his secondary stats still showed him doing lots in the background, but the scoring was much tougher to come by. This could be the way Telker slots into the team, taking on somewhat of a backlund role going up against top lines on a shutdown 2-3 line. Despite all of this though, it would be nice to see Telker get back to his old fashion again.
