TONIGHT:

The Ontario Reign (15-3-1-3=34 points), head to Cow Palace in Daly City to take on the San Francisco Bulls (8-12-2-1=19 points). This is the third consecutive meeting between these two teams in a week. In the first two match ups the Bulls surprised many and earned three out of four points and the Reign earned two points with a 3-2 overtime win.

On Friday and Saturday, the Reign managed to get a combined 88 shots on goal, but only found the back of the net four times. The Bulls got 58 shots on Michael Hutchinson and lit the lamp six times.

ALL-TIME REIGN RECORD ALERT:

A win tonight will break the Reign's all-time road win streak for their sixth straight road victory - the previous five-game record ran from Jan. 12, 2013 - Jan. 31, 2013. An overtime or shootout loss will tie the team's all-time road point streak of seven games earning at least one point - record runs from Jan. 12, 2013 - Feb. 23, 2013.

IN THE LAST 10 GAMES...

The Reign are 8-2-0-0 in the past 10 games. They have scored a total of 28 goals (2.8 per game average) and have had 20 scored against them (2 per game average).

Opposing teams have averaged 26.5 shots on goal per game and have been kept under 20 shots two times. The Reign's power-play unit has scored seven power-play goals for a 20.59% success rate and have prevented power-play goals 87.8% of the time. Goals from Matt Register have been the deciding factor for two games since Nov. 16 with an eighth round shootout goal on Nov. 27 against the Thunder, and an overtime tally in their most recent game, on Dec. 12, against the Bulls.
