The Shreveport Mudbugs (18-16-3-3) used a 2-goal middle frame to push past the 1st-place Lone Star Brahmas 3-0 on Friday night at NYTEX Sports Centre.
After a scoreless first period, it was Liam Wolf-Taulbee (5) who broke the ice at the 17:01 mark of the period, with Gabe Lopez-Courcy (4) and Ryan Baert (2). Jonah Jasser followed up with a breakaway tally in the final 91 seconds of the period with his 9th, extending the lead to 2-0.
