The Checkers wrapped up their final homestand before the All-Star break this past weekend, taking three of a possible four points from the Chicago Wolves and continuing to climb the standings.
Due to worsening weather in the area and poor conditions in the Bojangles’ Coliseum parking lot, tonight’s game against the Chicago Wolves is officially closed to the public. The game will proceed as scheduled at 7 p.m.
Looking through the top five scorers on the Checkers here at the midway point of the season, the names are pretty predictable. Derek Ryan was an elite scorer in Europe before coming to Charlotte, Trevor Carrick is an AHL All Star coming off a record-breaking rookie year, Brock McGinn is one of the most explosive prospects in the system, and Justin Shugg is the team’s reigning scoring leader. But the name in the number three slot might surprise you.
