Photo Credit: Dave Mahussier Moose Lineup: Dano-Spacek-Lipon Pedersen-Shaw-Griffith Harkins-Girard-D’Aoust Fejes-Reichel-McKenzie Stanley-Nogier Schilling-Stoykewych Oligny-Beaudoin Comrie Appleby Gameplay: - The Moose opened the scoring thanks to Cam Schilling's first goal of the season; - A nifty no-look pass by Jansen Harkins set up Alexis D'Aoust for his fifth goal of the year and a 2-0 Moose lead; - Kristian Reichel gets taken out (off balance as he reached for a puck) into the boards and a melee ensued; - Moose got the benefit of a quick whistle on a puck Comrie appeared to have covered (Laval put it into net); - 1st period ended 2-0 for the Moose who held an 11-10 shot edge after 20 minutes. - The Rocket were more aggressive in the middle frame out shooting Manitoba 11-7 but still couldn't beat Eric Comrie; - Not a particularly exciting period and it ends with the home side maintaining their two goal lead. - Rocket had some chances to get back into the game but couldn't beat Comrie (even when it looked like they had); - Lots of bad blood which seems odd considering these teams rarely face each other; - Logan Shaw was hurt, initially went to the bench but then left for the room; - Another disallowed Rocket goal (this was the right call); - Jansen Harkins fired it as he approached centre ice into the Rocket empty net to make it 3-0; - Late in the game (23.1 seconds left) Marko Dano scored to make it a 4-0 contest. Notable: - That was Eric Comrie's second shutout of the season (and second in last five games); - Jansen Harkins had 1G 1A; - Veteran D man Cameron Schilling scored his first goal of the season; - Michael Spacek added to his team leading assist total(19). - After Marko Dano went goalless in his first 9 games with the Moose he has three goals in his last five games; - Eric Comrie has a .921 save % (which is 4th best in the AHL) - Comrie has faced the most shots in the AHL this season (769) which averages to 33.4 per game. Audio: Jansen Harkins Eric Comrie Coach Vincent Health News: Following the game coach Vincent didn't have an update on Logan Shaw who left the game in the 3rd period. Up Next: The Moose are set to practice at the IcePlex 12 noon on Friday as they get ready for a re-match with the Rocket at Bell MTS Place on Saturday night.
