Last road game of the season.We're hoping to see some of that Utah road magic that we were so fond of at the start of the season. From a stats point of view, it looks like Utah needs to grab, then hold on to their lead as they are 23-0-1 when leading after two periods . . . yeah, that's pretty much textbook.
Kevin Deeth leads the Grizzlies against Idaho in points, so we hope to see him working his usual skills. Deeth has been held off the points sheet for the last 7 games. Engelage will be in net tonight and should also be a bonus for the Grizzlies against the Steelheads; Andrew is 4-1 against Idaho this season. Not a bad place to start. Let's make it 5-1, Andy.
Utah still has a few injuries in the mix, but Kilburg will be returning - woot! And it looks like Idaho has picked up some fresh blood in terms of a goalie and a forward. No real idea of how this may affect things, but we figure it's worth a mention.
Of most importance, we hope Utah decides to stay out of the box as much as possible. Idaho is 1st on the power play at 24.5%. The Grizzlies need to keep their heads and not allow the Steelheads to go on the man advantage . . . please?
Looking forward to something a little better than Sunday, boys.
