St. Charles Chill News Release


St. Charles, Mo. - The Chill started the third period on the power play and Dan Weiss cashed in with his fourth goal that closed the Chill deficit to 3-1 but the Americans answered with two goals of their own to put the game away by a final of 5-1.

Jamie Schaafsma scored the first of his two goals for the Americans just under three minutes into the first period for a 1-0 lead. His second goal bracketed one from Tyler Ludwig and at the end of two periods the Chill trailed 3-0 despite 21 shots, 15 in the second period.

Despite giving up a goal in the final minute of the second period the Chill took some momentum into the locker room and came out in the third period firing away.

The Chill (7-17-4) outshot Allen 9-6 in the final period and got the goal from Weiss on the assist from Phil Bushbacher and Martin Hlinka to close the score to 3-1 but the Americans (15-10-2) struck back quickly to stretch the lead back to three goals at 4-1 on the tally from John Snowden. Allen's Mike Berube added a goal midway through the third period to push the lead to 5-1 and the Chill could not convert on power play opportunities late as they continued to fight despite being down two players, including captain Jordan Fox.
