Mavs Minutes

Goal Per GameMavericks forward Michael Parks has three goals in three games played after beginning the season on injured reserve. He is tied with Rocco Carzo and Darian Dziurzynski for the team lead in goals.

Watson ReturnsMavericks defenseman Cliff Watson returned from AHL duty with the Chicago Wolves this week. Watson earned a spot on the Wolves in training camp and played in two games for the Vegas Golden Nights AHL affiliate. Watson played in 27 games in the AHL last year for the Stockton Heat, Hershey Bears, Utica Comets and Ontario Reign.

Rookie ContributionMavericks rookie forward Bryan Lemos scored a goal in his professional debut on Friday night, redirecting a shot from Cliff Watson in front of the net. Lemos played collegiately at Providence College with Mavericks rookie netminder Hayden Hawkey.

CJ ReturnsMavericks forward and fan favorite CJ Eick makes his return to the lineup tonight. Eick is in his third season with Kansas City and has played in 93 games for KC, scoring 13 goals and tallying 20 assists for 33 points and a plus-nine plus-minus rating.

Approaching MilestoneMavericks captain Rocco Carzo needs three goals to reach 100 career ECHL goals. He is currently fourth in team history with 62 goals.

Vet StatusMavericks forward and assistant captain Darian Dziurzynski played in his 200th career ECHL game last Friday night against Toledo

AHL AssignmentsThe Mavericks currently have three players assigned from Stockton on the roster. Defensemen Terrance Amorosa and Zach Osburn and goaltender Nick Schneider.

Instant ImpactMavericks newcomers acquired via free agency or trade have made a big impact already in the Mavericks first six games. Leading the way for Mavs newcomers is Jack Walker, who has a goal and four assists for five points in five games for KC since being signed as a free agent this offseason.

Flipping the ScriptThe Mavericks will flip the script on the league-wide DC Comics night as they will be playing the villain for one night only on Joker vs. Batman Night tonight against the Wichita Thunder. The Mavericks will be wearing specialty Joker-themed jerseys, the only team to wear villain-themed jerseys in the league this year.

BIO: Ramsay, 50, was introduced at a press conference on May 15th. He returns to the ECHL after spending three seasons as an assis-tant with the American Hockey League’s Grand Rapids Griffins. Before that, he was the bench boss of the Tulsa Oilers from 2009-15, where he compiled a 185-180-35 record in 400 regular season games. Ramsay led the Oilers to the playoffs in each of his last two sea-sons in Tulsa - which coincided with Oilers’ final season in the CHL and their first season in the ECHL.

A native of Dryden, Ontario, Ramsay returns to a place that he called home during his playing career. He played for the Thunder during the 2000-01 season, recording 35 points (11g, 24a) and racked up 364 penalty minutes. Over his 12-year playing career, he was a part of eight championship teams, winning four Colonial Cups and two Royal Bank Cups. He finished with 245 points (74g, 171a) and amassed 3,432 penalty minutes in 677 games as a pro.

After his playing career ended in 2005, he was named the Head Coach of the ACHL’s St. Pete/Winston-Salem Patriots. His head coach-ing career spans 11 seasons, including stints with the Beacons (2002-04), Muskegon Fury (2004-08), International Hockey League’s Muskegon Lumberjacks and the Oilers. Ramsay has consistently led his teams to the postseason, making the playoffs eight out of 11 years.

In 2015, Ramsay stepped down from the Oilers to pursue an assistant coaching position with Grand Rapids and helped lead them to the 2017 Calder Cup Title.
