Aces at Colorado Saturday, February 4, 2017
5:05pm AST Budweiser Events Center
Radio: 103.7 FM and 750 AM KFQD
Watch: ECHL-TV with Kurt Haider
Tough sledding last night for the Glacier Blue, as they ran into a goaltender in the zone, and a power play that isn't clicking right now.
Colorado 'tender Clarke Saunders turned away the 24 Alaska shots he saw, and the Aces went 0-5 with a man advantage in a 4-0 Eagles victory. Colorado has won five games in a row and the Aces have dropped two straight after a three-game home sweep of Idaho.
Colorado scored two power play goals, and got a shorthanded tally from Tiegen Zahn to upend the Aces, who played the game without ECHL leading scorer Peter Sivak, who was out with a lower-body injury. Sivak's availability for tonight's finale is unknown at this time.
After tonight, the Aces head home to prepare for the Utah Grizzlies Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of next week.
Here are the numbers for tonight...
