"We had a tough last season with some injuries and lost quite a few players and we were pretty thin," says Saracino, who is confident about the new season: "The biggest lesson is that any team can beat any team in this league. Every game is going to be hard and we definitely like our chances better with a full lineup."

In 60 ICE games so far, the forward has recorded 42 points (18G, 24A). Under new head coach Ron Fogarty, Saracino also expects his team to perform differently. "I think we're going to be more aggressive, a little more offensively. We're going to generate a lot more shots on net, which again will allow us to score more goals and I think he has a good defensive system in place that it will be harder for teams to score against us."
