Mahoning @ Quebec

The owner of the league is ready to see his team open the season on the road, are you? A great match-up today during our opening week. The Manatees are excited to see how well star player, Peter Forsberg will perform. The Nationals have some stars too, like Carter, and goalie Ed Belfour. We're ready to start this game with my prediction, Mahoning is going to run away with this one winning by 3 goals. Let's get started!
