Tonight, the Revolution will head up to northern New Jersey to take on the New Jersey Rockets at 7:00PM. Following tonight's game, the Revolution will head back to The Rink at Warwick to take on the Boston Junior Rangers on Saturday the 19th at 7:30PM and the Northern Cyclones on Sunday the 20th at 11:00AM.
"The Rockets are a strong team and are at the top of our division for good reasons," said EHL Head Coach James Laux. "We will be looking to play tight defensively and a more disciplined game against them. In order to be successful against the Junior Rangers and Cyclones, we need to be physical and take pride in defending our net."
The Revolution are looking to end their current three-game losing streak dating back to their October 6th loss against the Valley Junior Warriors. During this past weekend's EHL Columbus Day Showcase in Hudson, New Hampshire, the club lost both of their contests against the Cyclones and New Hampshire Junior Monarchs by a combined 12-2 score.
"The coaching staff and management were disappointed in the performance of the team during the Columbus Day showcase," said Coach Laux. "We have made adjustments in our practice plans to prepare for the upcoming three-game weekend and enhance our game."
Forward Ryan Marker has been called back up to the Junior A squad after a short stint with the organization's United States Premier Hockey League Empire team. In two games, he registered four goals and an assist. Defenseman Anthony Carbone will remain with the squad and will not be sent back down to the Junior B level.
"Marker had a very productive weekend," said Coach Laux. "We expect his point production to carry over to the A level. Carbone has brought a steady and physical presence in our defensive core, and we are hoping his defensive presence will remain consistent over the next few days."
