ECHL: Fort Wayne Komets Punch Ticket To Central Division Finals

Key Players

Austin Magera led the way for the Komets in the opening round as he put up three goals and seven assists for 10 points and had points in each of the five games. He would have three multi-point games in the series, including a three-point performance in Game 4. William Dufour would also have points in all five games of the series, totaling two goals and five assists for seven points, including back-to-back multi-point games in Games 3 and 4.

Special Teams

During the regular season, the Komets finished 13th at home on the PK, but cleaned things up in the playoffs as one of three teams in the Kelly Cup Playoffs to not allow a PP goal on home ice. They were also one of five teams that had a short-handed goal in the opening round. The PP for Fort Wayne has been dangerous all season, and that continued in the opening round as they went 5/24 with the man advantage in the opening round.
