Streaking in the right direction: The Allen Americans beat the Wichita Thunder on Thanksgiving Eve 5-3 at Intrust Bank Arena. The Americans erased a 1-0 Wichita lead scoring three unanswered goals to take a 3-1 lead early in the third period. Wichita roared back with a pair of goals from Jeremy Masella to tie the game at 3-3. Matt Marcinew broke the tie with his 7th of the year at the 11:59 mark of the final frame. His goal turned out to be the game winner. Kris Myllari added an empty net goal late to secure the win.
Jarvis to face his former team tonight: Andrew Jarvis was acquired late last week from the Tulsa Oilers for future considerations. He will face the Oilers tonight as the Americans resume their six-game road trip. In 46 games with the Oilers last season, he had nine points and 62 penalty minutes.
Americans hold Wichita under 40: For the first time this season, the Americans held their opponent to under 40 shots on goal. The Americans allowed 40 or more shots in 13 straight games. Two of the 13 games the opponents reached 50 shots or more.
Two new faces: The Americans traded forward Chad Butcher to the Fort Wayne Komets this week for defenseman Joe Gatenby, and forward William Provost. Gatenby played in nine games with the Komets this season and had two points. He made his Americans debut on Wednesday night and had one assist and finished the game a +2. William Provost had two points in three games for the Komets this season. He will make his Americans debut tonight.
Orzeck shines in Americans debut: Defenseman Nolan Orzeck made his Americans debut on Wednesday night and assisted on Hank Crone’s second goal of the season. Orzeck was acquired from the Iowa Heartlanders last week for future considerations.
