Macon Mayhem looking forward to ‘solid’ season filled with themed nights for fans
The Macon Mayhem are getting to start a another season as they have their first game on Friday night against the Fayetteville Marksman. The team is now looking to capture its second President’s Cup in the last three seasons in the Southern Professional Hockey League.
The Mayhem ended last season in heartbreaking fashion in the playoffs against the Knoxville Ice Bears in a 3-2 game. The Mayhem will be looking to get off to a hot start with a pair of games this weekend. Friday night the puck will drop at 7:30 p.m. On Saturday, they will host Zombieland Night against the Huntsville Havoc at 7 p.m.
“There is plenty of leadership in this group and I’m confident in the number of players capable of stepping up in a big way,” Mayhem Head Coach Leo Thomas said in a release. “It’s very early, so I’m obviously still trying to find a line or two and figure out who plays well with whom. But overall, this is a solid team.”
