The Week That Was... The South Carolina Stingrays played three games last week as they looked to continue their success from the games against the Florida Everblades.

Tuesday night brought the Charlotte Checkers to town. The Checkers are nipping on the Stingrays heels in the South Division and gained two points on the Rays in their 4-3 victory on Tuesday Night with a penalty shot in the first period and two un-answered goals in the second. Jonathan Boutin stopped 21 shots.

On Valentine's Day, the Stingrays traveled to Gwinnett. The Rays showed the Gladiators no love as they scored five goals in the third period to defeat former Stingray Josh Johnson 9-3. Spencer Carbery scored two goals in the game.

The week finished up with the Mississippi Sea Wolves as they came back to the North Charleston Coliseum. Michael Dubuc continued his scoring streak as he netted the game-winner in overtime, his 30th goal of the season. The Stingrays were 2 for 6 on the power play on Sunday afternoon.
