Ironmen At Chicago Storm (Game Preview)
The Ironmen will be facing an early season test Sunday afternoon when they travel to the Sears Centre to take on the Chicago Storm. The match gets underway at 2:00 PM and can be seen online on the B2 Networks.
The Irons are off to a disappointing 0-2 start in the shortened 20-game season. They dropped their last match on December 21 to the Detroit Ignition after blowing a late four-point lead. The Ironmen power play went scoreless during the two-game slide.
The loss at Detroit did produce a few positives. The offense put up 14 points after their dismal one-goal performance on opening day. Defender Rey Martinez lead the way with two goals and an assist on the day. Captain Shawn Boney's brace brought his career regular season point total to 301.
The Storm are also coming off a defeat in their last contest. They fell 14-10 to the league leading Milwaukee Wave on New Year's Eve. The loss dropped the Storm to 2-2 on the season. They sit in second place on the league table.
The Ironmen dropped their first meeting with the Storm 4-2 at the Prudential Center on December 14.
