Little Flyers Eastern Hockey League weekend wrap up. The High School Count Down

Little Flyers,  Zach Felser continues making a statement.  Tied for seventh overall in points with 18.  Those come from 6 goals and 12 assists.   Against Dalton Carter and the Cyclones Felser had a 2 point game, all the while being shadowed by no less than 2 cyclones at all times.  A cyclones club that has no less than 3 NCAA d1 future players.  
Head Coach Rocky Russo told the team to play the Little Flyers brand of hockey, when he said “We’re looking to go out and play a physical, blue collar type of hockey.  We need to suppress their offense, as well as sustain offensive pressure in their zone. We also want Alec Derks to have the type of solid game we’ve grown to expect.”  1996 birth year USHL/ Team USA prospect Derks now has a 1.22 GAA and ultra elite .957 save percentage.  He is when look at bad ass goalies...in any league,  as bad ass as they come.  The Illinois net minder has made his case.   Pickerington Ohio standout Jude Warner looks to be fully recovered from minor injury in preseason play, and showing his intensity on the ice, he found the net twice against the Cyclones in the 5-0 rout.  While center-men Austin Kelly went pointless in the game, his overall play was contribution enough, battling in all three zones.
the Little flyers won three games in four days.  They won them commandingly  beating the Revolution 6-1, Boston 4-0 and the Northern Cyclones 5-0.   Felser tallied 6 pts in the 3 contests and is maintaining a healthy 1.7 PPG
Moving Forward on Nov 16 the Little Flyers face the New Hampshire Jr monarchs 12 wins and 2 losses and were pegged as the team to beat this year.  More on that as that date draws ever nearer.


Well Ohio High School Fans.  Three Days and a wake up call untill the season kicks off!  Get your team colors and school pride going for the puck drop!
