WSJ Random Ramblings

[Cornholio 182]

Wolf Stansson Jr. has been around the block for a bit now. Only two more regression filled years until he’s out of the league for good. It’s been an interesting sixth year for the Prague Phantoms veteran defenseman - he came out of the gate strong, averaging a point per game for the first 25-30 or so. Then his production apparently has dropped off. 
 

“it’s the grind and the nature of those things - you have your hot streaks and your cold streaks. As a team, we’re playing fairly well even as we go through some sort of a goaltender bridge from the veteran Virgil Ligriv to Woody McPine. McPine has a bright future ahead of him, so we’re looking forward to seeing him grow. Gotta help ease those growing pains on him, not just for him but for the whole team as well.”

 

Prague has been somewhat solid this year although there are the occasional facepalm games where they lose against an expansion team, more so Warsaw than others for some odd reason. The Phantoms find themselves just a game outside the postseason picture and will need to hustle if they’re to overtake Malmo for the fifth and final European conference playoff berth.
