Indy Fuel News Release
INDIANAPOLIS - Rookie goaltender Ryan Massa made 38 saves for his second shutout of the season as the Orlando Solar Bears beat the Indy Fuel 2-0 Saturday night at Indiana Farmers Coliseum.
Massa made several key stops throughout the game, shining brightest during an 18-save third period that frustrated the Fuel offense.
TJ Foster scored a breakaway goal in the first period to open the scoring for Orlando at 12:42, tucking the puck between the pads of Mac Carruth (22 saves) as it just crept over the goal line.
After a wild flurry in the Solar Bears end late in the second period, Orlando went right back down the ice and scored an insurance marker with just under 38 seconds remaining to stretch the lead to 2-0.
The Fuel wrap the season series against the Wheeling Nailers on Sunday at 3:05 pm. The Morellis Cleaners Pre-game Show starts 15 minutes before every puck drop on CBS Sports 1430.
