The Flyers affiliate, the Reading Royals made a major change earlier in the season, and it comes at the cost of a coach. Royals General Manager David Farrar tries to salvage the season, thus firing second year Head Coach James Henry. Since that change, it has propelled the Royals into a tie for the last playoff spot in the North Division with 57 points, after finishing the weekend 1-1.

This shocked many throughout the Royals community, but they are trying to salvage the season as they sit only five points out if a playoff spot somehow. Yvan Mongo stayed hot with a goal against Worcester in the first game of the weekend (Friday night). This left him with six points in his last two games played after netting his 14th of the season.

Joe Nardi also stayed hot as he tallied his sixth point in two games, as he registered an assist on Mongo’s goal. Jake Bricknell scored the shootout winner, and Nolan Maier was fantastic with making 39 shots on 40 shots faced. He was also 3-3 in the shootout to earn the 2-1 victory in the shootout.
