Weekend Preview: Pair of Visitors

The Port Huron Prowlers turn their attention to a two-game weekend hosting the Danbury Hat Tricks and Stockton Thunder. All three teams are coming off games on Wednesday.

That night, Prowlers put their five-game win streak on the line at home against the Motor City Rockers. Port Huron held leads of 1-0 and 2-1 but Motor City tied it in the third. With less than a minute to go in regulation, Doug Blaisdell fired home the game winner from the point to get the Rockers their first win over the Prowlers since January 24, 2025. Port Huron is 5-2-1 with 11 points and atop the Great Lakes Division.

 The Hat Tricks were in Watertown on Veteran’s Day taking on the winless Wolves. Danbury took control early with three first-period goals and cruised to a 5-1 victory. Genaro Fronduto and Stefan Miklakos each scored shorthanded and had multi-point nights. Kyle Penton made 36 saves to get the win. Danbury is last in the Atlantic Division at 4-5-0 with eight points.

The Thunder visited the Oceanside Shock for their fourth meeting of the young season. Lester Brown scored 41 seconds into his Thunder debut against his former team and Stockton led the entire way from there. The 4-2 win snapped a three-game skid for the Thunder as William Augustine backstopped them with 34 saves. Stockton is fourth in the five-team Frontier Division at 3-2-2 with eight points.
