Road Trip To Youngstown
Youngstown, Ohio was the first stop of the Puska on Pucks Road Trip Tour
this season. The Youngstown Phantoms are an expansion team in the USHL this season and on this night went up against the Des
Moines Buccaneers. The Phantoms had yet to win a game on home ice at Covelli
Centre, but it seemed that Puska on Pucks brought Youngstown some luck as they won in an exciting contest 4-3. After that
game, the Phantoms reeled off two more victories over Des Moines and then Green Bay on home ice, before seeing their streak
came to an end on Friday versus the Gamblers.
