we salvage the split on the weekend roadie. this is from the davenport website:

On Saturday, the Panthers faced off against the Liberty Flames. The Panthers were mentally ready for the game but looked physically tired on the ice. The Panthers did not get any help from the "hometown" officials either. The power plays were 5 for the Panthers and 17 for the Flames. Playing the whole game short handed was tough for Davenport, they battled until the end, but came up short in the loss with the final score being 6-3
