Mid-week Update

The Scorpions take to the ice tonight against the Arizona Sundogs in a crucial four-point contest. This is the perfect opportunity for the Scorps to capitalize on a huge weekend performance and gain some much-needed momentum going into the all-star break. As most of you know, the Scorps have had their troubles putting together back-to-back performances like they did this past weekend, so here's to hoping Randy Murphy's got his guys where he needs them.

In other news:

• Chris Robertson is named the Oakley/CHL Player of the Week after posting 6 points (4g, 2a) in 3 games last week. It seems to be right around this time every year that Robo absolutely goes berserk.
• The CHL names its all-star starters as well as the reserve crew that will take on the Colorado Eagles on January 14. Aaron MacInnis is the Scorpions' lone representative, but it's a much-deserved nod for big Mac, who's been overshadowed a bit in past years by the point totals of Rob Guinn and Vladimir Hartinger
• Lastly, here is top NHL prospect John Tavares' unbelieveable goal from the World Junior Championships. Sign him up!
