The Checkers continue to be spooky good as the calendar turns to Halloween, sitting atop the Atlantic Division and second overall in the league at 8-1 through nine games. The team is more or less where they are supposed to be, with a rock star offense, a booming defense and a steadily improving goaltending prospect.
The team has averaged 3.88 goals per game, good enough for 6th best in the league. Charlotte is allowing 2.22 goals per game, only behind the Bakersfield Condors, San Jose Barracuda and Iowa Wild for fewest in the league.
