About the Eagles:  Michael Joly continues to lead the playoffs in scoring with 22 points (10g, 12a) after recording a goal in the first period of Wednesday’s Game 3….The Eagles power play has been soaring in the Kelly Cup Finals.  Colorado posted a 2-for-29 mark on the power play in its Western Conference Finals series with Fort Wayne. However, the Eagles are currently 5-for-15 with the man advantage against Florida, including three 5-on-3 power play strikes.  A big factor in the team’s success with the man advantage is the play of defenseman Matt Register who leads the playoffs with nine power points (1g, 8a).
