Aeros are actually involved with defense struggle, but they manage to come out with flying colors. Among the 15 teams their 24 goals got them the sixth position in the Western Conference. All the talent to be one defensively dominant team exists here. There are days when sloppy or streaky game plagued the team. The young team has the potential to play the game defensively this time and Aeros have potential to beat any AHL team any time.

Mainly in the progressing matches Goalie Matt Hackett’s play will be vital. His performance has won the Aeros five of their games as over two goals only were allowed in each game by him. Moreover the 210 saves makes him a wonderful player. If the same performance is continued or even improved Houston Aeros will break more records.

Critics have agreed that roads make it difficult to win games, but this team has proven couple of times how the attempts are a strong sign of comeback.

The Aeros are being cheered by the fans across Houston and the players are responding to the encouragement with more defense and improvements. Houston Aeros are going to couple offensive attack loaded with high power and the Calder Cup could be theirs, this is one dynamic team.
