The Phantoms Head Back Up to Wisconsin!
We're officially sick of talking about Madison (10-3-1-0) but we still have to play them on Friday. The good news for the Phantoms(6-7-0-2) is that we beat them once (and lost once) last weekend, and this week it's only one game against the Caps. We'll also take a little trip across Wisconsin on Saturday to face Green Bay (5-7-0-1) for the first time this season, so I think I'll just focus on the Gamblers this week. They are right behind us in the standings, so this week will be a big test of just where we stand in this campaign.

The Gamblers rarely dazzle opponents with their scoring prowess. Their top scoring forward and leading goal scorer is Jackson Hallum (6g, 6a) a 3rd round Las Vegas Golden Knights pick in 2021. A lot of his success is from his skating ability and raw speed. Defenses have to be aware when he is on the ice, he can be gone in a second. John Mittlestadt is second among forwards in points and team in goals, with 5g and 1a. John is the brother of former Gambler and current Buffalo Sabre, Casey, and Luke, a current Madison Capitols defenseman. John follows his brother in having a pretty complete skill set and great awareness. Rounding out notable scorers is Brody Lamb, a 4th round New York Rangers pick in 2021. Lamb has a rifle shot but, while he chooses to shoot more often than not, is a good passer as well with good vision. You have to know what his options are before committing.
