Vipers host Maniacs
Posted Sep 5, 2010 by AJ Sports Media.

The Kensington Moase Plumbing and Heating Vipers will host the Down East Maniacs this Saturday night at Community Gardens in Kensington. The Mark's Work Wearhouse IJHL game gets underway at 7:45p.m.

The first-place Vipers will be looking to stay perfect at home this year but the feisty Maniacs will have something else in mind.

The Vipers went into Thursday night's game with the best penalty killing in the league, killing off an astonishing 97 percent of their penalties while scoring five short-handed goals. Vipers' coach Dale Dickieson says, "we can't go to the well too often. The team will have to start to cut down on the minors or it will catch up at some point."
