Kings deadly counter attack topple Degenerates
For the Kings, it was quite simple on what they needed to do. By simply forcing a mistake, the quicker side would counter attack creating numbers that would leave the Degenerates defence guessing. Despite dropping the opening contest, the Degenerates fought back-from a 3-0 hole but couldn't kill off 30 seconds in order to force a shootout. The second contest wasn't nearly as close. The Kings wasted no time peppering P.Assadi with four first period goals. Two of those tallies belonged to M.Orlando, who was simply too fast to keep up with. Overall, the Kings showed plenty of good things in their season opener and will be a difficult out for any opponent.
