QUICK BITS
SOUCH A GREAT PERFORMANCE:
Wednesday’s meeting with Atlanta proved beneficial for second-year forward Carter Souch, as the winger slotted a pair of goals in the loss. Souch recorded his fifth-career multi-point game and first of the season. In his four games, Souch is tied for the team lead in goals. His other goal came last Friday in the Rabbits’ first meeting with the Ghost Pirates.
MANNY MOVES UP:

In the Rabbits’ first four games, McManus has tallied at least one point in each contest, including a two-assist night against Atlanta on Wednesday. On Sunday, against the Ghost Pirates, McManus scored huis first of the season and 13th of his career. His increased lethality has earned the California native has landed himself on the top power-play unit.
KECHS RACKS EM UP:

An additional assist against the Ghost Pirates last Friday has give McKechney, who was trade to Greenville in December of 2022, his fourth point in as many games.
A FRESH START FOR THE KILL:
Last season, early struggles for the Rabbits’ shorthanded unit gave way to a final percentage of 77.7 at the end of the campaign. Head Coach Andrew Lord made the improvement of the penalty-kill a top priority, and his expectations have been met in the early goings. The Rabbits have allowed just one power-play goal against on 14 times shorthanded. Greenville’s 92.9% on the PK is ranked 5th in the league.
