Wichita Closes Weekend This Afternoon Against Mavericks

WICHITA, Kan. (Jan. 23) - The Wichita Thunder, ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League's Edmonton Oilers and American Hockey League's Bakersfield Condors and powered by Toyota, returns home this afternoon looking to salvage the weekend against Kansas City. 

The Thunder have dropped the first two of a three-in-three to Tulsa, losing last night 2-0 at the BOK Center. Kansas City split a weekend home series against Newfoundland, winning last night 4-2 over the Growlers. 

Last night was the fourth time that Wichita has been shutout this season. The last time the Thunder couldn't find the scoresheet was on December 15 in Utah. 

Wichita remains in seventh place with 29 points and is looking to snap a five-game winless skid. Kansas City is in sixth place with 37 points. After today, the Thunder and the Mavericks won’t play until March 1. 

Nick Pastujov leads the Mavericks with 36 points. Darik Angeli is second with 33. Jay Dickman leads the Thunder with 27 points. Carter Johnson is second with 26.
