Moose vs Condors

The Skinny: The Moose picked up the 3-1 win over the Condors on Tuesday night but it is tough to win back-to-back in the American Hockey League especially when you consider that Bakersfield is the top team in the Pacific Division. Pre-game news: Moose signed Declan Chisholm to an ATO. Chisholm has completed thee years of junior with the Peterborough Petes. Moose Lineup: Dano-Shaw-Appleton Vesalainen-Girard-Griffith Harkins-Spacek-White Fejes-Maclise-Reichel Stanley-Stoykewych Schilling-Nogier Oligny-Beaudoin Berdin Appleby Gameplay: - Both teams came out of the gate hot and opened with some chances; - After killing off their second penalty of the opening period the Moose were being outshot 9-1; - Mikhail Berdin was worth the price of admission as he was sensational in the opening period; - Late in the 1st Marko Dano got hit with a 5 minute major and was kicked out of the game; - The Moose PK which went 7/7 last night was again on killing off the two minors and Dano's major; - The 1st ended with no score but Condors outshooting Moose 14-4. - After Logan Stanley got dangled the Condors opened the scoring on a goal that was reviewed; - Moose D man Charles-David Beaudoin scored his first of the season to tie the game; - Manitoba continued to apply pressure and really seemed to take control in the middle frame; - Lots of post-whistle shenanigans throughout the game (you'd think they played in same division); - The Moose got a 5 on 3 late in the 2nd period and Logan Shaw scored exact same goal as last night; - Just like last night it gave the Moose a 2-1 lead which is how the 2nd period would end. - The game had a playoff atmosphere throughout the entirety of the contest; - Bakersfield tied the game after the Moose took an icing; - But they didn't sit back playing for OT and with 3:28 left Mason Appleton put home the 3-2 goal; - That's how this game would end.

They've now gone 18-2-1-1 in the last 22 games at Bell MTS Place with two more home games this weekend. Add 29 more saves for Mikhail Berdin who picks up back-to-back wins for Manitoba. Considering he made 40 saves the night before it has been quite the 24 hours for the Moose goalie. Improves to 11-6-3 on the season. Standings: 3. Iowa 81 pts (72 games) 4.
