What a thrilling game for the Checkers! Coming away with a 4-2 victory against the defending champs is no small feat. John Leonard really stepped up with that multi-goal performance, and it’s exciting to see him finding his rhythm. The way he redirected that point shot and then managed to sneak one in from behind the net shows his creativity and skill.

And let’s not overlook Kyle Criscuolo! Scoring on the power play is crucial, especially when you can extend the lead like that. The Checkers' power play conversion rate is impressive at over 41 percent! That’s a stat that can make or break a season.

Ken Appleby’s performance in net was also key. With 22 saves, he held strong when the Bears were pushing hard to come back. It’s great to see the team working together, especially with players like Trevor Carrick and Sanids Vilmanis contributing consistently.

This kind of teamwork and resilience is what makes hockey so exciting. The Checkers are definitely a team to watch this season! What do you think about their chances moving forward?
