 The playoff push continues tonight on home ice for the Rampage as they battle the hard charging Milwaukee Admirals at the ATT Center. The Admirals have moved to within a single point of the final playoff spot in the Western Conference winning 6 of their last 10 while picking up at least one point in 8 of 10. The Rampage, meanwhile, sit in sole possession of 6th place, but are just 3 points away from missing the playoffs altogether.

 Jacob Markstrom will make his 5th straight start tonight and the rest of the Rampage lineup should remain the same as Wednesday night's win over Chicago. Markstrom has taken the reigns as the #1 goaltender and I expect him to be the man from this point forward. He has done nothing to lose the job in the last 2 weeks, and could be the deciding force down the stretch and possibly in a playoff series.

  The Rampage called up a handful of players from Cincinnati on Friday as insurance and to push the starters in practice. Garrett Wilson, Anthony Luciani, Joe Devin, and Justin Vaive are all on their way to San Antonio. Vaive is the only player of the four included on the "Clear Day" list, so would be the only player eligible to see game action unless there are a rash of injuries or call ups.

  Tonight is another game 7 for the Rampage. We need the fans to do their part and bring the support. Come loud and come proud. And for God's sake, keep "The Wave" in 1985 where it belongs.

See you at the rink. Until then, LET'S GO RAMPAGE!!
