And not on the scorer’s table, either: Stefan Ruzicka with three points, and the Phantoms open up with a victory on the road. Munroe makes 31 saves, too. Jonathan notes in the blog that Richards says Nathan Smith is his captain. Ryan Stone still had the ‘A’.

Andy already noted in the comments Utah’s madcap comeback win. Back to Billy next?

Worlds begin tomorrow.
