San Jose Barracuda News Release


Rockford, IL. - The San Jose Barracuda (28-26-4-4) led by a pair heading into the final period on Saturday at BMO Harris Bank Center, but the Rockford IceHogs (37-25-4-4) stormed back with four unanswered goals in the third to claim their fourth straight win, 5-3.

During a four-on-four sequence in the first, Sam Warning (2) intercepted the puck at Rockford's line, raced up ice, and beat Jeff Glass with a nifty forehand-to-backhand move at 7:49. Adam Clendening (5) evened the score on the IceHogs third power play of the period as he wired a slap shot from the point three seconds into the man advantage at 15:38.

In the second, San Jose regained its lead when former IceHog Brandon Mashinter (11) poked in a pass from Radim Simek on the PP at 6:58. Less than a minute later, Caleb Herbert (2) made it 3-1 'Cuda as he tipped a Warning shot past Glass at 7:30.

In the third, Rockford exploded for four goals in the first five minutes on five shots. Lance Bouma (5) started the scoring by directing a back-door feed from Clendening 41 seconds into the period. Henrik Samuelsson then stuffed in the equalizer at 2:11, and Luc Snuggerud (5) fired in the go-ahead goal from the right point at 4:14. 14 seconds later Matthew Highmore (22) ripped a wrist shot past Willams at 4:25.

Stephon Williams (1-1-0) suffered the loss after allowing five goals on 30 shots, while Glass (15-8-2) earned the win after making 19 saves on 22 shots.

The Barracuda return to SAP on Wednesday to take on the San Diego Gulls. Listen live on the Barracuda flagship radio station AM 1220 KDOW, the all-new Sharks + SAP Center app, and watch on AHLLive.com.
