Revolution vs. Express Game Preview: September 22, 2013

WARMINSTER, PA - The Eastern Hockey League Philadelphia Revolution (0-2-0-0) hit the road for Walpole, Massachusetts to take on the Express (1-1-0-0) this Sunday, September 22nd, at 2:30 PM. 

This will be the first of two meeting between the clubs this season, as well as the first time they meet in each franchise's history.   

"Walpole has always been a high end Atlantic Junior Hockey League team and had a great reputation as an organization," said Revolution Head Coach James Laux.  "We have prepared for them as we would any other team and expect them to be every bit as good as the competition we played against last weekend."

The Revolution head north looking for their first win of the season and in the EHL.  Last weekend, the club lost to the Boston Bandits and New Hampshire Junior Monarchs by a combined thirteen to three score.  

"After the losses," said Laux, "the number one focus for us was working on our defensive zone play with and without the puck.  Also, the coaching staff and I expect our returning forwards Riley Egan, Ken Tencza, James Wallace, and Kyle Jennings to stand out offensively and have defensemen Ryan O'Malley and Nick Schaefer anchor the blue line."
