Great Backend Addition

Since being acquired from Bakersfield on January 11, Corey Fienhage is an even or better in eight of nine games with the Grizzlies and is second behind Jacob Johnston with a plus-eight during that stretch.

Forward Keeps Producing

Ryan Hayes is Utah's second leading scorer, behind Pelech, since being acquired on January 16. He has three goals and five assists for eight points in seven games with the Grizzlies.

Danick Being Danick

Utah is 20-4 the last two seasons when Danick Paquette scores a goal in a game.

Stellar Goaltending

Both Ducks prospects currently anchoring the Grizzlies goaltending situation have been stellar. Igor Bobkov is 4-1-1-0 in his last six starts and Ryan Faragher is 4-2-1-1 in his last eight. During the Grizzlies 7-2-1-0 stretch, Bobkov and Faragher have combined for a 2.31 goals-against-average and a .927 save percentage.
