NAHL Weekend Preview

October 14, 2022

After four days off and no weekday games, the NAHL gets back into action this weekend with 22 games on the schedule on Friday and Saturday.

Last weekend, the storylines were full of plenty of series sweeps as the division leaders continued to roll and extended winning streaks.

The hottest team in the NAHL, the Northeast Generals, who have won seven straight games, will take to the ice at home against the New Jersey Titans. The final series as Johnstown back from a bye and looking to snap their five-game losing streak as they host the Philadelphia Rebels.

In the Midwest, the 1^st place Kenai River Brown Bears are off to a 9-3-0- start and put their six-game winning streak on the line as they have their home-opening series against the Fairbanks Ice Dogs, who have lost three in a row.
