Game 2: Thunder 3, Grizzlies 2

Series tied.

Utah and their fans were definitely stunned in this one. The Grizzlies came out really strong in the 1st and 2nd periods, but couldn't keep the puck out of their own end in the 3rd or Overtime. Frustrating, especially considering the game we saw from the boys in Game 1.

When Stockton went up in the 3rd, we didn't know if Utah could do it. But Parnham saved the day with his tying goal late in the 3rd. Nicely done, Visa.

Special teams were still pretty strong. Utah has yet to allow Stockton a power play goal, but has been able to capitalize on 4 of their 9 power play situations. If the Grizzlies keep this kind of work with the special teams up, then we shouldn't have to worry.

Get the lead back Saturday, Utah.

Stars of the Game -

1. STK - K. Czuy
