The Eagles Have Landed (And We're Bringing the Lasso)

Look, I'll be the first to admit it: back in November, the Avon Eagles looked good. Their purple jerseys were clean, their redesign was sharp, and they managed to escape Columbus with a 7-6 win that felt more like a glitch in the Matrix than a hockey game. Scoring 13 goals in 45-minutes? That's not hockey; that's a game of air hockey where someone forgot to turn on the fan.

But here's the thing about Eagles. They're majestic, they're national symbols, and they spend roughly 90% of their time looking for a fish to steal. They're basically just seagulls with a better PR department and a fancy color palette. This Sunday, we're meeting them at North Park Ice Arena, and the forecast isn't looking great for high-altitude flight.

Our featured Mustang is Senior Captain Dustin "The Outlaw" Primozic (#24). If you haven't seen Dustin play this year, imagine a Yellowstone character decided to lace up skates and forgot to leave the "no-quit" attitude at the ranch. He's the kind of guy who hits hard, scores harder, and probably wears a cowboy hat to bed. He was all over the stat sheet in our last meeting with Avon, and he's been playing with a "baller" energy lately that suggests he's ready to turn those Eagles into some very expensive purple feather dusters.

We haven't forgotten that heartbreaker in Columbus. We survived "arcade mode," and now we're ready for the sequel.
