Starting all five games for the Bombers, the 25-year-old allowed only seven goals and was 5-0-0 with a 1.40 goals-against average and a .952 save percentage. Denike helped the Bombers climb into second place in the North Division, two points behind Cincinnati and two points ahead of Reading, when he stopped all 25 shots he faced to record his first shutout of the season in a 6-0 win against Trenton on March 4.
